Tamarita Rachel and Little Sister Emily enjoy new adventures in this second volume of stories about the lives of children in Ecuador. The girls learn about the Incas, visit a volcanic lake, celebrate the Day of the Dead, and throw a party for the children in the village who are sponsored so that they can go to school. The stories are ideal for 4 to 8 year olds and are fun to read aloud together at home, at school, at the library or at Sunday School. Children will learn what life is like in a different culture and how they can help the poor. Andrea Gardiner is a missionary doctor in Ecuador. Many of the stories in the book are based on real-life events. The first volume, The Adventures of Tamarita Rachel was a finalist in the 2014 CLIPP Awards.
