Marie-Louise Gay and David Homel combine their writing and
illustrating talents with their own family memories to produce a
very unique travelogue. Family vacations are supposed to be
something to look forward to. Unless, that is, your parents have a
habit of turning every outing into a risky proposition -- by
accident, of course. So instead of dream vacations to Disney World
and motels with swimming pools, these parents are always looking
for that out-of-the-way destination where other tourists don't go.
Their adventures involve eating grasshoppers in Mexico, forgetting
the tide schedule while collecting sand dollars off the coast of
Georgia, and mistaking alligators for logs in the middle of
Okefenokee Swamp. Travels with My Family is told from the point of
view of a long-suffering big brother who must fulfill many roles in
this eccentric family: keep little brother out of trouble, humor
artist Mom, and discourage Dad from pulling out the road map to
search for yet another off-the-beaten-track destination.
Husband-and-wife team Marie-Louise Gay and David Homel and have
combined their prodigious writing and illustrating talents with
their own family memories to produce a very different travelogue.
