Customer Reviews

Good read, but for a younger audience.

This book is a good read for anyone, who loves to be taken to exotic places when reading. However, most of the book is very simplistic and is certainly for younger readers, so if you're looking for an investing story this may not be the book for you, but it most certainly could get a child interested in reading.
