Each year, more American families travel to England, Scotland and Ireland than any other foreign tourist destination. But how can parents keep young travelers engaged in their surroundings and interested in the trip? In Once Upon a Time in Great Britain, author Melanie Wentz provides information about attractions, restaurants, and other sights tied to dozens of beloved childrens books and authors throughout the British Isles and includes many of the books classic illustrations. Each chapter covers classics such as:Winnie the Pooh, Peter Rabbit (and other Beatrix Potter tales), and Paddington Bear for the younger tourists Alice in Wonderland and The Secret Garden for older kids C.S. Lewiss Chronicles of Narnia Series and J.K. Rowlings Harry Potter books for all readers. Wentz also helps travelers make the most of visits to the towns and other sights that inspired the magical worlds of such authors as Roald Dahl, J.R.R. Tolkien and Dr. Dolittles Hugh Lofting, among many others. From parents who grew up on Wind in the Willows and Peter Pan to kids who thrill to Babe or Harry Potter, this book will make the family trip to England a hit for the whole family.
