13 Little Blue Envelopes is a story about a whirlwind, mysterious adventure one girl takes through Europe. No wonder it's one of our most-requested books!
In the book, seventeen-year-old Ginny receives letters from her aunt Peg, instructing her to travel to foreign lands and complete a series of tasks there. The rules Ginny must follow are:
- Rule #1:
- Rule #2:
- Rule #3:
- Rule #4:
Ginny must maneuver her way across the globe to find out what surprise is awaiting her in the 13th envelope. Though the rules above seem pretty daunting (no cell phone? How does a person get anywhere without a cell phone?), I think Ginny's journey seems like a blast. I've done a little traveling, and it's always an adventure that forces you to think fast, solve problems and be flexible.
Have any of you had any crazy experiences while out on a trip? For those of you that have read the book, have you ever encountered any of the strange predicaments Ginny has?
Oh, and for those of you that are planning on making a trip sometime in the near future, Maureen Johnson, the author of the book, has a fun set of travel tips . Check them out, and bon voyage!
