This book, Ubbi Goes on Vacation, is interesting and educational. It is interesting because Ubbi participates in planning the trip from the beginning, talks to friends using the old-model mobile phone at poolside, sits in the life ring as a lifeguard, and relaxes on the inflatable float in a pool accompanied by balls but not toy animals. This book is also educational. Ubbi looks in the mirror every morning to make sure her appearance is presentable before starting her daily activities. She learns that parrots can imitate people's talking, that the lamps on top of the lighthouse give out powerful light that can be seen up to eighteen miles at sea, and that the avocado is also known as "alligator pear." On her vacation, Ubbi also visited the local library, grocery store, and flea market. Because of her good trip planning, she visited many places and had an enjoyable vacation.
