    Held the attention of kids and adults

    This book gives a whole new meaning to travel writing. Through text and illustration Markle and Terrazzini share fascinating elements of ancient Asian culture that echo in today's world. We follow Marco Polo as he encounters animals, places, and people unlike anything with which he is familiar.
