    [synopsis] => Need something to do with your children while shut in by the Corona Virus? This reading and activities book will have something of interest for a wide range of ages. With many photo illustrations and an activities section at the end, it is designed for parents and children to read aloud and then engage together in discussions and drawing/coloring. It tells the story of a group of 8-year-olds who fly with their Grandmother to London from New York, to visit a friend who lives in a castle.

They learn about airport security, plane travel and, when they get to the other end, the process of Passport Control and Customs. With their British host, they encounter cultural differences, see historical artifacts and then solve a mystery. At the same time, they learn about time zone changes and why it is still light at 9PM in Britain in the summer! The underlying goal of the book is to relieve anxiety children may feel about international travel, history and cultural diversity, while giving them something fun to read. The author is a retired teacher with 7 grandchildren aged 7-11, who have given it their stamp of approval!
