"A+ educational content….Wonderful... to share with young kids -- to broaden their horizons and discover new places of interest!” — Common Sense Media

The Tiny Travelers “Treasure Quest” Series takes its readers on a fun-filled journey to discover what makes each country special with search-and-find features on every spread.

In Tiny Travelers Japan Treasure Quest, readers journey from the bustling capital city of Tokyo to the beautiful festival of the cherry blossoms (or Sakura) and to the summit of Mount Fuji. Tiny travelers will enjoy getting closer to Japanese culture in all its splendor.

Each illustrated spread invites children to discover hidden "treasures" - icons, animals, statues, instruments and more - that make up majestic Japan.

“Most kids today are told that it’s a small world, when in fact it’s a really big world,” says Encantos CEO and Tiny Travelers creator and author Steven Wolfe Pereira. “And because the world is so big, there are many countries, cities, and cultures that have yet to be discovered and explored by kids. We created Tiny Travelers to foster curiosity, empathy, and understanding by learning what makes people and places so special.”

“Purpose is at the core of the Tiny Travelers launch... The goal is to expose kids to the vastness and diversity of the world beyond their backyards, engendering empathy for different cultures, geographies and languages at a time when people all over the world are more connected than ever via digital platforms.”- Forbes

“The books are full of fun facts, hidden “easter eggs” , and rhyme-based storytelling. They’re infused with keywords from the featured country’s language, helping teach kids correct pronunciation and useful phrases for travel.” - Parentology

"This series is perfect for parents or educators who want to introduce new countries to kids, and teach them more about these counties. I absolutely love the pronunciation guides with the words!" — Heather Justus, Educator
"Teachers, and home-schooling parents, can use the Tiny Travelers™ series to introduce geography to their students and toddlers in addition to cultures, sports, nature, people, and places. Curious preschoolers will question and compare what they learn with their own world. Adding the “Search and Find” segment gives each child a hands-on experience with both reading and the content at hand." — Sue Morris, Kid Lit Reviews
Great for kids of all ages, the interactive book is packed full of beautiful illustrations and rhyme-based storytelling." ⁠— Red Tricycle
