Cathay is a long way from his home in Venice, but when 14-year-old gondolier, Tonio Tumba receives the chance of a lifetime, he doesn’t say no. Leaving behind his only possession, a shabby green gondola, Tonio eagerly joins Marco Polo on his adventure.

As Tonio and the Polo family travel the dangerous silk road to modern-day China, they encounter many fascinating people and dangerous perils. When Tonio rides into Cathay on one of the Khan’s elephants, he says to his friend, Pietro: “Elephants are grand… but give me a horse any time – unless I could have a gondola. When we get back to Venice, I’ll take you out in mine.”

There are many wonderful sights, amazing inventions and great riches to discover, though Tonio looks forward to getting back home - but many years will pass before his chance to see the canals of Venice again. When so much has changed, will Tonio find anything worth returning for?

Louise Andrews Kent is a master storyteller, weaving historical accuracy and immersive adventure into one epic voyage of discovery.

This new edition features all the original illustrations and clean, readable text. It is a fantastic living book teaching about history and geography, recommended for ages 10 and up.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Vendor!

I read this book 50 years ago as a child, and it fed my fascination with exploration and discovery that led me to my career as an archaeologist. I searched for it in my local libraries, but no one had it. Thanks for carrying such old and obscure books such as this, and for reintroducing me to an old friend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great way to learn history and geography
Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2023
I wish I had read books like this when I was in school! I'm reading this aloud to my children, and we get to know Marco polo as more than just a name, more than "another explorer" (as I remember him). It's perfect for my 9yo and 7yo. Thanks to Living Book Press for reviving this series! I can't wait to read more of them.

I remembered this book from my childhood and wanted to read it to my grandson. So thrilled to have got a copy. Arrived on time and is as it said it would be.
