Almost everyone looks forward to summer vacation. Sometimes its because were taking a trip. But other times, its because someone is coming to see us
Author and illustrator Jackie Mattes shares memories of her childhood in The Best Part of the Trip. Each summer, she and her older sister eagerly awaited her fathers arrival at their summer home. And finally, Jackie and her sister were old enough to wait for him alone.
The Best Part of the Trip shows the love of a family for being together. And the fun they have. Youll also see how being blind doesnt stop their father from living a full, active life.
Jacalyn H Mattes, a native of Jamaica, Queens, NY, resides in Nicholson, Pennslyvania with her husband Roger and their four children. The three oldest Emily, Molly, and Philip are busy with college and carving out a life for themselves. Phoebe, the youngest, attends middle school. Jacalyn has been a Special Education Teacher for over 20 years and works with multi handicapped students. It has always been her dream to become an author.
