Armchair Adventures
Explore! is a glossy new adventure magazine for girls and boys between the ages of nine and thirteen. Articles range from descriptions of road trips around the country, to a feature on a 16-year-old who sailed around the world. Regular columns include "Who Am I?" in which readers have to guess the identity of a mystery subject (the first issue features Amelia Earhardt as the "First Lady of the Sky"). "Then and Now" is another regular column, which compares how a technique, such as navigation, was carried out a century ago as compared to the current use of high tech instruments. Explore! is published 10 months out of the year, and subscriptions available online, are $19.95. (Bulk subscriptions are also offered.) For more information, go to www.exploremagazine.com or call customer service toll free at (877) 817-4395.
