- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A little girl, her mother, aunt, and small cousin all go on a trip in a conoe for three days. They have all sorts of adventures and do lots of things before returning home. What is really neat about this book is all the little notes and bits of information about the trip you get along the way, and the unconventional format. I remember loving it as a kid, so I was glad to find a copy.
