Time to Meet Max: Adventures in Guatemala with Anna & Cole (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780692953969)

Cole and Anna are kids seeking adventure in Guatemala. They ride a tuk-tuk, a "chicken bus", horses to Volcano Pacaya, and zip line over Lake Atitlan. Along the way they discover something unexpected: a boy named Max. Max is extraordinary. He was adopted from Haiti by Big Papa, a scary-looking man with a big heart. Max shows them how to see, though he is blind. He leads them - in his wheelchair. The three become amigos, "the Three Guacamoles", and discover that, though each one is unique, they are all the same - in friendship. "Together we stand " is their cheer. They lift each other up - and fly together. "I always knew you could fly," Big Papa told Max. You too can fly.
