I always wanted to go on a magic carpet ride as a child. I’d go to Alaska. This would be a fun book for my grandson who loves to skateboard.
I’ve been feeling homesick lately, missing my Southern California home. So Milo’s magic skateboard would be the perfect transportation–that is where I learned to ride a skateboard, and I would fit right in.
Hawaii is fun
My oldest grandson loves his scooter and soon he’ll be the right age for a skateboard. He’s into gymnastics and enjoys being outside.
I believe in magic!
I’d like to have a Tardis to travel back and forth in time.
I would travel to Antarctica.
Because it is a magic skateboard, it could take me from my Oregon home to one of my favorite places on Earth: Galway, Ireland!
I would go to Tokyo Disneyland!
What a fun way to explore the world on a magic skateboard.
