Twelve-year-olds Zephros and Embera unlock a world of wonder with a single passport. Guided by an heirloom compass, they journey from Lisbon's sun-lit rooftops to Marrakech's spice-scented souks, from Bali's emerald rice terraces to Greenland's icehouse villages, and beyond. Along the way, they weave rugs with Berber artisans, dance in Rio's carnival, tag penguin chicks in Antarctica, and learn ancient hieroglyphs by pyramid torchlight. Every sketch, measurement, and melody becomes a bridge between cultures. Passport to Distant Lands invites children ages 5-10 on a joyful, comical, and heartwarming exploration demonstrating that travel truly connects us all.
