Reader ReviewsI have been talking about hiking the Grand Canyon with my 9 year old gradson. (His mom did the hike with me when she was nine) This book is great in it's detail about what adults and youngsters both see and experience when doing the hike. What children imagine the hike is like and what actually transpires are not exactly the same. It's not as easy as they imagine! But the rewards are worth the effort!
