Riding the Americas

Part two of the bestselling trilogy

Tom dreamed of being an adventurer, but people told him he was crazy, so he decided to prove them wrong by cycling round the world.

The first book of adventures followed Tom across Europe and through the mysterious landscapes of Africa.

In Part Two, he pedals north from the tip of South America up through the Americas towards Alaska. He must contend with deserts, jungles and the massive mountains of the Andes. He meets grizzly bears, fascinating locals and even a memorable guinea pig. Tom learns about the world, and himself, as he tackles this epic journey.

Based on the author’s personal experiences and with engaging illustrations, maps and handwritten journal entries throughout, this book provides an immersive experience for any young adventurer.
