Jenny J's Travels Away

Jenny's imagination whisks her away to the beautiful Himalayan mountains in the country of Nepal. With each turn on the steep, rocky path and each high bridge she crosses, Jenny encounters many adventures. She meets another young girl, who is traveling with her grandparents to provide wonderful gifts and other support to the local orphanage. As they hike up the mountain together, Jenny and her new friend learn about the Sherpa people and their culture. They eagerly soak in all that they learn about these wonderful people, from Mount Everest and teahouses, to prayer flags, languages, and daily life in the mountains. With a couple sips of tea and some peanut butter and Oreos, Jenny's imagination brings her back home.
