Climb in for the perfect road trip Farm visits and foraging in the fields, car games and silly songs -- what better way for a family to spend the day?

The car has been stocked with drinks and snacks, maps and joke books, treats for horses and ducks -- and now it's time for three kids, two parents, and one excited dog to set off on that most favorite day trip, a drive in the country. The destination? Oh, here, there, and home again, with a fresh appreciation of family togetherness. Michael J. Rosen's lyrical, nostalgic text and Marc Burckhardt's whimsical illustrations are sure to encourage armchair travelers to come along for the ride.
