Written by Joan Abeles and illustrated by Mary Jane Gerber, Places to Go, Things to See, Things to Do, All Across Canada is a useful travel resource guide. The book is divided into sections representing the provinces with the sights marked on a provincial map. There are further details on museums, parks, historical sites, and amusement parks in the various sections. This is a must book for people who are interested in vacationing in Canada.

As for me and my family, next year we are taking the dinosaur tour of Canada. We start in Montreal at the Redpath Museum, followed by the Canadian Museum of Nature in Ottawa. Next, we got to the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, Science North in Sudbury, the Manitoba Museum of Man and Nature in Winnipeg, and the Royal Saskatchewan Museum in Regina. Finally, we arrive in Alberta and the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Drumheller and Dinosaur Provincial Park in the Badlands. See you at the dig!

This is a book that every tourist should enjoy. It is recommended for children, adolescents and adults.
