Four Corners Publishing specializes in children's travel novels for readers ages 9-13 about countries, cities and famous places they may be planning to visit or are curious about. Each story stars a young American who has adventures in the featured place, adventures that take advantage of the special nature of the city or region in which they occur. In the back of each book is a map with a guide written in a lively, personal manner from the main character’s point of view. The guide describes attractions from the story along with other intriguing places—and most of these are not found in other guide books!
Each guide also includes the hours of operation and telephone numbers of the featured sites, so accompanying adults can arrange visits even in advance of a planned trip, thereby avoiding disappointment at the last minute.
When children are enthusiastic about traveling or moving, a Four Corners book heightens their anticipation and helps them have more fun when they arrive at their destination. When they are nervous or resistant, a Four Corners story is the perfect introduction to the place they are going.
The world has become much smaller in recent years and children are going to places that adults could only dream about when they were children. Four Corners books are the perfect companions for all their travels.
