Epcot: A Planet Explorers Travel Guide for Kids
()
About this ebook
Epcot is easily the most unique theme park on Earth. The combination of Future World and the World Showcase gives the park its wonderful World's Fair spirit. Where else can you blast off to Mars, watch Michelangelo at work, visit Italy, eat lunch in Japan, and soar through the sky over California--all in a single day?
Epcot is the perfect place to try a French pastry for lunch and German schnitzel for dinner. You'll love the park's beautiful gardens and amazing live performers. At the end of your perfect day, Illuminations: Reflections of Earth will dazzle your family with lights, fireworks, lasers, water fountains, music and fire.
Read through this guide written just for kids aged 8-12 for insider information about what you'll see at every attraction and pavilion. There are fun facts, tips, restaurant listings and photos for every World Showcase country and Future World pavilion. Take note of some useful symbols. These will appear throughout the book as attractions are mentioned.
