My 12 year old daughter and 7 year old son both enjoyed this series. We got to visit Wyoming when we vacationed last fall, but Aiden and Nadia explored much more of the state than we were able to see. (We didn't make it to Yellowstone.) My children enjoyed reading about this homeschooling family's continued adventures. This chapter book continues the story of the Wright family as shared in the previous books Arizona and Utah.
The Wright On Time series by Lisa M. Cottrell-Bentley continues with the Wright family's travels in Wyoming. Through the Wright family’s experiences you are exposed to attractions, terrain, animals, and more found in each state. A map is shared that includes facts and features about the state, too. This book shares the children's explorations combined with their Dad's alternative energy work for an educational tale. The glossary in this one is extensive.
Tanja Bauerle's illustrations again captured the kid's attention. Her drawing of the typical hydroelectric dam helped it be more understandable. My children are continuing to enjoy the stories about this family that is travelling through all 50 states in an RV.
