Arctic Quest, The

Get ready to embark on an EPIC road trip, thanks to special glasses that transform kids into Arctic animals! An exciting, family-friendly, bilingual adventure. The Martinez kids have no idea that a sparkling frozen wasteland awaits them as they set off to Mexico to spend Navidad with their relatives. The spunky bilingual siblings already knew their neighbor Don Toño had invented a virtual reality shed, but they had no idea he had created a "to-go" version that would allow them to be whisked off to the Arctic from the comfort of their car seats. When they arrive in the Arctic, they are thrilled to discover that they have animal bodies! The siblings are having a blast exploring, flying, and making new friends, but when the unthinkable happens, will they be able to use the lessons they have learned to save their little sister? Adorable lemmings, polar bears, snowy owls, and harp seals grace the pages of this exciting adventure that will have kids (and their grown-ups) begging for one more chapter! Inspired by the author's own bicultural family, this book incorporates Spanish language and Mexican culture, highlighting the richness of bilingualism, traditions, and family. Let your imagination soar with this exciting bilingual adventure!
