Do You Know Juneau? a Kid's Guide to Juneau, Alaska

About Do You Know Juneau? a Kid's Guide to Juneau, Alaska

The area of Juneau is larger than that of Rhode Island and Delaware individually and almost as large as these two states combined. Downtown Juneau is nestled right at the base of Mount Juneau and is named after gold prospector Joe Juneau, although the place was for a time called Rockwell; and after that it was called Harrisburg after Juneau's co-prospector, who was named Richard Harris. That said, Juneau is a great place for kids where you can go to the top of a mountain in a tram and eat lunch, shop, see a wildlife center, and on a clear day look out over the town below you. Juneau is touristy and fun, and you can buy freshly made popcorn and fudge in a family owned store. Award winning author, attorney and former teacher Penelope Dyan, and photographer John D. Weigand traveled to Juneau, Alaska to see what they could see, and they saw plenty! There is fun, good food, friendly people (some dressed in costume) and more, and this once gold miners' town keeps the flavor of times past alive, all for your enjoyment. Use this book to practice reading skills through word recognition, repetition and rhyme as you take a little explore through this city stopped in time. And look for the Bellissimavideo music video that has the same name as this book on YouTube to add to the learning experience.
