Marco Polo brave explorer  Cover Image Book Book

Marco Polo brave explorer / Cynthia Lord, illustrated by Stephanie Graegin.

Lord, Cynthia, (author.). Graegin, Stephanie, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"Marco Polo is a retired Christmas ornament, but in his mind he is a great mouse explorer. Because he's tiny and likely to be lost, he is the least-borrowed of the Book Buddies - toys that children can check out of the library just like a book - and he almost never leaves the library. But the little mouse finally meets the right match in Seth, a boy who is about to attend his first sleepover. If Seth were to bring the stuffed bunny he usually sleeps with, he'd risk being teased, but Marco Polo is the perfect size to hide away in his sleeping bag. Are both boy and mouse in for an unexpected adventure? Charmingly illustrated and offering a window into the secret life of toys (including a suspenseful glimpse at where all the household's lost toys go), Marco Polo Brave Explorer explores common fears and quiet bravery and will leave readers eager for the next episode in the Book Buddies series." -- Provided by publisher.
