A staycation is a period in which an individual or family stays home and participates in leisure activities within driving distance of their home and does not require overnight accommodations. (Wikipedia)

Spend the last days of summer with a reading staycation! Maybe you would like to join Anthony Bourdain in his worldwide quest for a perfect meal. Perhaps you & the little one would like to travel to Germany, France, & Italy with Clara, a 5000 pound rhinoceros (Mary Tavener Holmes). Or maybe you’re better suited to accompany another grump in his search for the happiest places in the world (Eric Weiner). Whether it’s a reading roadtrip across America or a journalistic journey to a foreign land, the books in this display will take you where you want to go.
