Whether you're a boater or a land-lover, seven or seventy-seven, come cruise along on America's Great Loop through the eyes of Sandy's grandparents.
Told through the eyes of young Sandy, this children's book follows her grandparents as they travel America's legendary Great Loop by boat — teaching lessons about family, curiosity, and the joy of the journey.
Written by two retired teachers with 50 years of classroom experience between them.
Sail along the Great Loop — 6,000 miles of rivers, lakes, and coastal waters.
A loving tribute to the bond between grandparents and grandchildren.
Ages 4 to 104 — boaters and dreamers alike will find something to love.
America's Great Loop is a continuous waterway stretching over 6,000 miles — connecting the Atlantic coast, the Gulf of Mexico, the Great Lakes, and the inland rivers. Boaters who complete the entire route earn the title of "Looper."
It's a journey full of sunrises over still water, small towns that feel like family, and wildlife sightings you'll never forget. Mimi and Papa invite you aboard for every mile of it.
From grandkids to grandparents, the reviews are in.
"My grandson asks for this book every night. The illustrations are sweet and the story sparked so many questions about maps, boats, and his own grandparents' travels."
"As someone who completed the Great Loop last year, I love that there's finally a kid's book that captures the magic of Looping. A must-gift for any boating family."
"A delightful read-aloud for my second-grade class. The writing is warm, the vocabulary is rich, and the sense of adventure is contagious."
