Great action books to share with your family

If you are looking for some great adventure books for everyone in your family, take a look at these curated by the Phraset review team.

When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit

by Judith Kerr

An autobiographical novel based on the author’s life When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit is a sensitive and provoking look at a critical moment in history, told in approachable language for your middle-grade reader. Anna isn’t sure who Hitler is, this name she hears everywhere in Berlin, and she doesn’t understand why her father has left under the night. Her mother explains to Anna and her brother that they’ll join him soon, in secret, and over the next three years, Anna and her family live as refugees in Switzerland, France, and England. An essential companion to your child’s school studies, this book will also shed light on today’s refugee crisis.

Beyond the Bright Sea

by Lauren Wolk,

Simultaneously thrilling and beautiful, Lauren Wolk’s tale of 12-year-old orphan Crow and her journey of self-discovery will sweep your kids — and you — away. It’s the 1920s, and Crow has never known life away from Massachusetts’s isolated Elizabeth Islands. To boot, she knows only two other people: Osh, the man who rescued her from an abandoned boat, and their neighbor Miss Maggie. One night, the spark of a faraway, mysterious fire sends Crow down an unstoppable path of dangers and revelations. It’s a perfect book for starting conversations about the endless forms family can take.

Adventure quotes to share with your family

Here are some adventurous quotes to fire up your family for your next family holiday, weekend get-together, or just for the everyday.

My family is my biggest adventure.

“If you think adventure is dangerous, try routine. It’s lethal!”

– Paulo Coelho

“Great things never come from comfort zones!”

Laugh like you are 10

Party Like you are 20

Travel Like you are 30

Think Like you are 40

Advise Like you are 50

Care Like you are 60

Love Like you are 70

Make today an adventure.

Traveling and family; the only two things in the world worth any cost or sacrifice.

And then there is the most dangerous risk of all — the risk of spending your life not doing what you want on the bet you can buy yourself the freedom to do it later.

Any day spent with you is my favorite day.

Happiness is planning a trip to somewhere with someone you love.

Every day we make deposits in the memory banks of our children.

“Travel in the younger sort is a part of education; in the elder, a part of experience”

– Francis Bacon

“Travel is Education”

“Jobs fill your pocket, but adventures fill your soul.”

– Jamie Lyn Beatty

Not all classrooms have four walls.

It’s the little moments that make life great.
