Bookroo's summary

Join a father and son on a hundred-mile adventure to Grandma's house. As they travel from city to countryside, the son repeatedly asks, "Are we there yet?" With each query, he turns to the map, counting down the miles. Will they reach their destination without losing patience? Follow their route and discover the journey's surprises.

From the publisher

On a hundred-mile car trip to Grandma’s house, a father and son travel from the city to the country. Every ten miles the son asks, “Are we there yet, Daddy?” and is told to consult the map. A gatefold map, as well as a map on each page, will allow young readers to follow the father and son’s route and to count down the miles left in their journey.
