You haven't Traveled until you've Tale Traveled Four city kids take a trip to the library of their new small-town home and begin the adventures of their lifetimes. "Henry's History" isn't just a story about Christopher Columbus's 1492 voyage; it's also the beginning of the journeys for Henry and four others through timeless tales and true stories. Ten-year-old wisecracking Henry discovers how to captain massive ships, battle storms and rally young men to success. He also deals with books that inhale children, pages of history that turn in a windstorm with him upon them, time that freezes around him and magical pencils and erasers that create worlds he can really visit. Henry does it all through the eyes of Christopher Columbus and alongside the enchanted narrator, Hope, who shows up when he most needs her and in ways he never imagined. Will Henry escape the mysterious book that sucked him into its pages? Will his sisters and brother or the boy he hasn't met yet get out of the other caged, locked books that are "checked out for the duration"? "Henry's History", the first in the limited series, "The Tale Travelers", will have readers eagerly turning pages and excitedly awaiting the answers to these and more questions.
