"The Mapmakers’ Race already feels like a timeless adventure. Its roaring spirit and dashes of fantasy are sure to inspire many children to take on their own intrepid journeys, but for now they’ll be more than happy to live vicariously through the Santanders, each of whom have their own strengths, and whose bond is heartwarming."
