I enjoyed the Halliburton stories, too .... and Kon Tiki was one of my favorite books as a child.

And I'm female ... :-)

Enjoying that type of story is more related to a love of reading and an environment that encouraged learning about the world than to gender.

I've got two 5 and 9 year old boys.

I'd like to find contemporary adventure writers who correspond to Halliburton and Heyerdahl that we could read together.

(the three year old girl already gets Cosmo)
