I have been reading 360 Degrees Longitude by John Higham with Jason Springer. The book is about a family's year long journey around the world. It was written by the father of the family and is from his perspective. Some of the central ideas in this book are family bonds and learning about other cultures.

When reading this book, readers find out lots about different cultures around the world. The family experiences different cultures and conditions firsthand. This book is interesting because it challenges lots of stereotypes Americans have of people in different cultures. The family also has a blog that documents their trip around the world. Overall, I think that this is an interesting book that shows how travel can change ones perspective.
