(4) 4-6 Kat isn't happy about being forced to forfeit her spot at summer camp in order to take a family vacation to Mexico. Things start looking up after she meets Nando, a guide of Mayan descent who dislikes tourists but enjoys telling stories. Though his narratives reveal historical and geographical treasures of the Mayan culture, their length and the text's explanatory tone become tedious. Websites. Glos.
