New Orleans: a T (W)een Travelogue Jenny Velasquez

The stories and photos that comprise NEW ORLEANS: A TWEEN TRAVELOGUE offer a rare look at the Crescent City through the savvy words and sassy eyes of 12 young women ranging in age from 11 to 14. Follow them through the narrow streets of the French Quarter as they spend eight days among tarot card readers, restaurant chefs, Mardi Gras floatmakers, street performers and vampire guides. Their strong and varied voices celebrate New Orleans as a destination for tweens, teens and families of all ages. So, curl up with these stories and a steaming cup of café au lait. Before you know it, you'll be making reservations for the entire family. In the words of the youngest of these writers, "Kids in the French Quarter? Take 'em along!"
