Travel Down Under to Australia with Eliza Lomax. Her TV-reporter mom just got the biggest assignment of her life, covering the Summer Olympics in Sydney and Eliza gets to go along. It should be her greatest experience ever, but Eliza isn’t so sure she wants to leave New York and the friends he knows to go halfway around the world.
Once she gets there, though, Eliza begins to find Sydney fascinating as she travels to its famous and little-known attractions. She experiences adventure and romance amid the excitement and spectacle of the Olympic Games. Go with her to the Australian Museum and the Royal Botanic Gardens and see a panorama of the harbor and the city from a lookout in the south pylon of the Sydney Harbor Bridge.
