United States Treasure Quest (Tiny Travelers)
by Steven Wolfe Pereira (Author)
Inspire children to fall in love with the world they live in with Tiny Travelers!
The Tiny Travelers "Treasure Quest" Series takes its readers on a fun-filled journey to discover what makes each country special with search-and-find features on every spread.
In Tiny Travelers United States Treasure Quest, readers will journey from the capital city of Washington DC, to the vibrant Mardi Gras festival in Louisiana, and the iconic Yellowstone National Park. Tiny travelers will enjoy getting closer to American culture, making magical discoveries along the way.
Each illustrated spread invites children to discover hidden treasures - icons, animals, statues, instruments and more - that make up the rich cultural heritage of the United States of America.
"Most kids today are told that it's a small world, when in fact it's a really big world," says Encantos CEO and Tiny Travelers creator and author Steven Wolfe Pereira. "And because the world is so big, there are many countries, cities, and cultures that have yet to be discovered and explored by kids. We created Tiny Travelers to foster curiosity, empathy, and understanding by learning what makes people and places so special."

The books are full of fun facts, hidden easter eggs, and rhyme-based storytelling. They're infused with keywords from the featured country's language, helping teach kids correct pronunciation and useful phrases for travel. —Parentology Purpose is at the core of the Tiny Travelers launch... The goal is to expose kids to the vastness and diversity of the world beyond their backyards, engendering empathy for different cultures, geographies and languages at a time when people all over the world are more connected than ever via digital platforms. —Forbes Great for kids of all ages, the interactive book is packed full of beautiful illustrations and rhyme-based storytelling. —Red Tricycle Teachers, and home-schooling parents, can use the Tiny Travelers(TM) series to introduce geography to their students and toddlers in addition to cultures, sports, nature, people, and places. Curious preschoolers will question and compare what they learn with their own world. Adding the 'Search and Find' segment gives each child a hands-on experience with both reading and the content at hand. —Sue Morris, Kid Lit Reviews This series would be perfect for elementary classrooms and libraries! —Megan Honeycutt, Librarian This series is perfect for parents or educators who want to introduce new countries to kids, and teach them more about these counties. I absolutely love the pronunciation guides with the words! —Heather Justus, Educator The highlight and greatest strengths of this book, and of the series, are the intentional diversity of the settings, the people who are illustrated, and the less-than-typical activities and interests depicted. Though this 'board book' format is not typical for the target age, it suits the subject matter well. That includes the advantage of being able to fully open each spread to lie flat, allowing it to be examined closely...I'm convinced this will appeal to a wide age range, and that just might include the adults who share the book with them. —Sandy Brehl, Unpacking the POWER of Picture BooksSteven Wolfe Pereira is the Chairman and Co-Founder of Encantos.
