Great kids' travel book about Barcelona
Format: Flexibound
Lonely Planet has some wonderful books designed to make an intimidating city full of interest and fun for kids. Most travel guides have way too much information for young travelers. This one about Barcelona has the most interesting information broken down into bite sized pieces for kids.
All the pages are lively and colorful. They have photographs and illustrations. The guide contains what you want to know about zoos, museums, food, history and more. The blocks of text are short enough for young readers to get through and absorb the information. There are also details presented in text boxes. Because it's not page after page of a lot of written information, it is very inviting for young readers. While the Table of Contents doesn't explain very clearly what each section contains, there is an index at the back to help guide you.
This book is recommended for ages 9 to 12. I think it might be better for a younger range, like 7 to 10. Either way, I think it's a great choice for any child traveling to Barcelona. While we have no plans to go anytime soon, my kids still looked through the pages of this book and enjoy learning about this foreign city. It's a good one to keep on our bookshelf and look through time and time again.

More Tapas Please!
Format: Flexibound, Format: Flexibound
If you are bringing kids along to a new city like Barcelona, the Lonely Planet Kids book provides a great introduction for the children. It has very little of the adult stuff about hotels and restaurants and nothing on how much they cost. It is all about sites and experiences.
This lonely Planet book is divided into sixteen trails. There are marked starting points for each one on a map of the city, but no directions about getting from one attraction to the next along the trail. That must be the job of the adults. The groupings include history, castles, shopping, sports, parks, outdoor recreations, and food. I think that there should be more on food.
There are over eighty pages in the book. Each page is rendered in bright color drawings and photographs. The images and the explanations each take up about the same amount of room, although I think that the images have the advantage. This is a great book for the kids and for adults who want to get the essence of the city without getting bogged down in details.

Really fun and great for homeschooling or travel prep
Format: Flexibound
If you plan on traveling to Barcelona and want to get the kids excited and pumped for the visit, this would be a perfect book to read. There are so many different interesting aspects covered, from Barcelona's fashion week, to interesting wildlife found at the local parks, to statues and local history, that it really makes things rich and interesting.
What I love best is the design and layout. There are photographs mixed with drawings mixed with text in different sidebars and bubbles. It's just really fun to read and fun to browse. The one thing that I don't like is that some books like this have a type of stinky ink that gives me an immediate headache. Unfortunately, this book has that stinky ink., and even letting it air out with some of the pages splayed open, has not dissipated the smell.

Inviting layout for kids and very informative!
Format: Flexibound
My 9 year old son loves this book! He is a huge fan of the Lonely Planet books. We have their books on Countries and Cities which he loves and is always pulling off the shelf to read but he loves these new City Trails books even more. If you are familiar with their other kid books this series is very similar. The information is presented in bite size chunks that are about a paragraph long. His favorite part was the the thematic trails which provide the information on a few pages under a different theme throughout the city. He loves the the real pictures of the city and the fun graphics, like cartoon people and information put in a phone. My son loves trivia and fun facts so this book is perfect for him. He loved telling me lots of things I had never heard of before. This was an informational book for him that gave him a lot of great information about the country and culture and would be an excellent choice to prepare for a trip. I remain very impressed with how engaging Lonely Planet makes information inviting to kids. I will definitely be buying him more books in this series.

Easy and exciting
Format: Paperback
3.5⭐️
I didn't know that this book was the third part of the Campus Police series. But it reads well as a stand-alone book. The first two books are about the other two couples who also appear here.
This time, the story revolves around Cappy, who is back after a few weeks away and her grandfather's funeral, and Jazz, a librarian with a special flair for decorating her office. In this short time, a lot has changed in Cappy's personal life, and she has to get used to it all again.
Brian, a talented football player who was forced to completely change his life after a traffic accident, is found dead. Initially, it is classified as suicide, but Jazz insists on a more thorough investigation of the case, as she is convinced that Brian was looking forward to the future despite adverse circumstances. Cappy is assigned to determine whether it was a crime. The interviews Cappy conducted to uncover all the circumstances and background information were interesting. However, I found it a little strange that a civilian was allowed to attend these interviews.
Jazz and Cappy have mutual friends who are all professionally involved with the campus. The banter between them is amusing, and the romance between Cappy and Jazz is nice and sweet.
An easy-to-read book with amusing and likable characters, good and witty dialogue, and some suspense.
