Book Description:

"If my name was Amanda I'd live in Atlanta, and I'd wave hello to a shark..."

A little girl with a big imagination dreams of the adventures she might have, if she was somebody else instead of herself - from befriending sharks in Atlanta to playing jazz in New Orleans to riding her bike in Zanesville.

The possibilities are endless, but her favorite person to be is still herself, at home with her family.

With playful, rhyming text and colorful, engaging illustrations, this whirlwind introduction to the richness and variety of life in the USA is a story that children will delight in reading over and over, and using as a springboard for their own imaginative adventures.

Our Review:

Amanda was interested in this picture book, because her name was in the title. We had a lot of fun reading it. The story was entertaining with wonderful illustrations. The names in the story went from A - Z with Amanda in Atlanta and Bonnie in Boston, etc. There were familiar places and not so familiar ones. At the end of the story, there's a map with all the places mentioned in the book with a bit of information about each one. It's a great way to get to know the USA better for kids and their parents!
