Nine Countries, Two People, One True Story
by Casey Scieszka
Casey and Steven met in Morocco, moved to China then went all the way to Timbuktu. This illustrated travel memoir tells the story of their first two years out of college spent teaching English, making friends across language barriers, researching, painting, and learning to be themselves wherever they are.
"Starred Review. Come grad season skip Oh, the Places You'll Go! - this will be far better appreciated, with its effortless mix of globe-trotting adventure, romance, humor, and expanding self-knowledge." - Publishers Weekly
"For teens itching to get out into the world, though, this is a great road map, and Casey and Steven make for eminently pleasant traveling companions." - Booklist
"Newly fledged adults (and even those with plenty of mileage under their wings) will find both entertainment and perhaps a dollop of inspiration." - Kirkus
