Grandma and Grandpa’s Traveling House in Texas

 

Saddle up! Grandma T and Grandpa Dave are parking the RV in the Lone Star State!

In Grandma and Grandpa’s Traveling House in Texas, a surprise package arrives in the mailbox with real cowboy hats and a postcard from the road! Through a fun family video call, the grandkids follow Grandma T and Grandpa Dave across a massive working cattle ranch to help real cowboys rope, brand, and check the health of giant Texas Longhorns.

Perfect for a 1-week homeschool state study, a family road trip, or a cozy bedtime read, this colorful picture book gently introduces young minds (ages 4–8) to:

• Historic Landmarks & Civics: Explore the famous walls of the Alamo, discover how Texas became the 28th state in December 1845, and tour the capital city of Austin.
• Space Exploration & STEM: Visit the Johnson Space Center in Houston to stand inside Mission Control and see how astronauts train to fly rocket ships to the moon!
• Texas Geography & Wildlife: Trace the southern Rio Grande river border, explore the central grassy plains, and meet western desert animals like roadrunners, coyotes, javelinas, and horned lizards.

📦 COMPLETE THE ADVENTURE!
