Overview
Go on a fun filled romp with Nancy Noodlehead as she travels around her state of Georgia, the Peach State. Follow her day journal as she explores Princess Trahylta's grave, finds a staurolyte good luck cross, visits the state's two rivaling peanut monuments, meets gopher tortoises at three state parks, learns about George Washington Perry and the world's largest wide-mouthed bass, and there's lots more! Learn about some of Georgia's state symbols and legends as you too learn to have "Georgia on your mind."
Description
After many requests for a book on Georgia, particularly for the second grade curriculum, Nancy Noodlehead got busy and hit the Georgia roads, taking pictures, collecting facts and legends, and keeping a journal about fun places she visited in her home state of Georgia. Included in her seven day adventure are explorations of the state amphibian (the green tree frog); a visit to Princess Trahyta's grave and search for the fountain of youth; her search for Georgia's two peanut monuments; a trip to see The Big Oak, as wide as it is tall; three meetings with our state reptile, the gopher tortoise; eating grits, the state prepared food; revisiting the site where George Washington Perry caught the world's largest wide mouthed bass; and finding a rare staurolyte, the state mineral. So she wrote a book: Travelling the Georgia Roads with Nancy Noodlehead with the help of Cathy Kaemmerlen, her alias, and she converted it to an e-book for all to enjoy.
