Mrs. Ammerman, the school librarian, has a problem. None of the students wants to check out any of the many books in her library. Something has to be done! She needs to come up with a very crafty idea to get children involved in reading. Suddenly she gets a brilliant idea. And that is where our story begins. The children are whisked away to places they had never dreamed of before. Not only do they learn a lot about each place visited, but they also learn about caring for the environment, other people, and themselves.
