The Greatest Adventure by Tony Piedra
4.0

Age: Preschool-1st grade
Family: Grandpa and grandson
Location: City life
Identity: Spanish-speaking

Eliot has a great imagination while going on adventures around his home but he yearns for a true adventure. When grandpa comes to visit, he tells Eliot all about his adventures on his boat, the Hispaniola. But, his boat in disrepair, Grandpa shows Eliot that he can no longer go on anywhere exciting. But with a little bit of imagination, Eliot shows his Grandpa that they can go anywhere they want to go.

One sentence per page and large illustrations make this a serviceable read-aloud for classrooms and storytimes alike.
