[Gocamino] children's books on Camino

Wed Apr 9 19:28:35 PDT 2008

Hola to all those who've helped with and are interested in children's books on the Camino, especially Rebecca.

The mouse book is called "Pepe mouse and his friends in Santiago de Compostela". I found it with isbn details on http://onthecamino.squarespace.com/camino-books-by-everest... but can't seem to find it anywhere else.

I've been thinking about doing a picture book for my grandchildren ever since returning from my Camino in November 06....maybe now is the time to get on with it!!!

Best wishes..

Wendy

The Ramsay Scallop I think is for young teen readers. It´s a good one, although the more fastidious among us find it a bit too touchy-feely. 

Here in Spain there is a series of children´s books featuring a cartoon mouse who visits great cities and cultural sites all over Spain, and takes the kids through the whole tour. They are in Spanish, and cost about 15€ each, and I´m pretty sure I have seen one about Santiago de Compostela and the pilgrimage. If you´re really interested I can track it down for you. (I saw it in Sahagun, so it´s got to be widely available.)
