I’m over the moon to see all three Zoom books in one gorgeous new edition. Groundwood Books has done a beautiful job of repackaging the series. Thanks especially to Michael Solomon for his exquisite design. Eric Beddows has drawn a lovely new illustration for the cover, as well. Zoom at Sea was first published in 1983, Zoom Away in 1985 and Zoom Upstream, a decade later. Eric actually went to Egypt to research the pharaoh’s tombs for the last of the trilogy!
