REVIEW: This could almost be one of those topsy-turvy books were one story reads from the front and then you flip it over and read the second story starting from the back because it is the same story from two different points of view from two different locations that intersect on the high seas. Both girls, similar in age, have very different lives and are in awe of the their counterpart’s life and home. It is interesting to see that Santo Domingo needs ice to make their cocoa ice and Maine needs the cocoa to create their chocolate ice cream.
NOTE: The front endpage shows a large area map with the sea trip route marked. Did you notice the compass has in its center a cocoa pod cut in half showing the cocoa seeds inside
ACTIVITY: Can you compare the two girls, their homes, their families, the climate, their culture, their clothes, their treasures?… (altro)
