Publisher's Note
Wow! Washington, D.C.! Rooney's whole class gets to go on a two-day trip to the nation's capital. They'll see all kinds of great sights-the Washington Monument, the National Air and Space Museum, the zoo, and lots more. Emily Arrow can hardly wait. But when the day of the trip comes, things don't turn out right for Emily.
Industry reviews
Gr 2-4 In this continuing saga of the children from Polk Street School, the class is taking a trip to Washington, D.C. During the trip, Emily comes to realize that a generally unpopular classmate has some positive traits; in fact, he turns out to be a good friend. Along with the story, Giff offers a quick tour of the sites. She also includes a section of very brief descriptions of the students' favorite things to see, along with addresses and phone numbers. Even with the present closing of roads in the city and some errors, such as calling the Tomb of the Unknowns by its former name, this is a fun introduction for youngsters making their first trip to the nation's capital. Shirley Climo's City! Washington, D.C. (Macmillan, 1991) and Catherine Reef's Washington, D.C. (Dillon, 1990) are for older audiences and deal with history rather than just having a good time looking around. An easy-to-read chapter book for fans of the series, as well as for those planning a visit. Margaret C. Howell, West Springfield Elementary School, VA Lopate
