My Thoughts


Elijah Goes to Cleveland brought me home to my roots. I was born and raised in various suburbs to Cleveland. I loved seeing a book featuring a scavenger hunt with familiar places. Elijah is in Cleveland visiting his grand parents. His favorite band is giving away free tickets, but you have to go on a scavenger hunt to get them. His grandparents know their way around the city and help Elijah try and track down the band. Unfortunately every time they make it to the next clue, the band member is gone. Elijah gets frustrated but his grand parents push him to keep going. They travel all over Cleveland looking at all the different attractions that Cleveland has to offer. I loved the pictures in the book, I loved all the sites they visited. Cleveland is a beautiful city with a lot to offer. 

Thank you to the author, publisher and Children's Book Review for allowing me to read a copy of this book. All thoughts are my own.
