Publisher's Synopsis
Spin the Globe: The Incredible Adventures of Frederick von Wigglebottom is a fact-based and educational book series based on bedtime stories I told my daughter and son. Each night they would ask Daddy to tell them a story. After exhausting every variation of animal, astronaut, and princess stories I could come up with, one evening, I took notice of the globe that sat atop their dresser. I asked them to help me with a story topic and had them "spin the globe"! They would use their finger to stop the globe, and wherever their finger landed, I had to tell them an impromptu story about that particular country or area. This particular story of the series takes place on the island of St. George's Caye in Belize. Frederick is joined by K'ayab, a Mayan boy, and Hayá, a Garinagu girl, who release two rehabilitated sea turtles into the sea and teach him all about the history, people, sites and marine and jungle animals of the Pearl of the Caribbean.
