An Good Starting Point, Lacks a Little Depth.

This is a decent little book, but since it covers the entire state, it needs to stick to the main attractions and does not got too deep into any location. There will be just a couple of recommendations for restaurants for example, and attractions like Gatorland are missing from the Orlando coverage. Quality: This book seems a little more glossy than the run of the mill Frommer's book and it did an excellent job when I was flipping through and showing my seven year old possible things we could do while on our vacation. It is not crammed with photos, but it has enough to make page flipping worthwhile. Coverage: Since my son is into nature and fossil collection, we needed a lot more resources to find a fossil expedition and specific nature stops. Also, since our trip was mainly concentrating on the southwest coast, the other 3/4ths of the book did not help much. And as stated above, there were not a whole lot of different options, this is a pretty general book possibly because the targeted audience are British vacationers focusing on Disney and Universal theme parks. The travel information was decent, although quaintly British again. British thing: Forgive me if I am missing something about Frommers, but this book is strongly aimed at the British visitor to Florida. For the most part this is no problem as long as you can get over hire car instead of rental car or the idea of "liquified baby food," But there is a decidedly British tilt to attraction selection as well, for example biplane rides for kids with Biggles fascination. Very few kids on this side of the pond have any idea what Biggles is about. The book does not say it is written for Brits but it seems to have been. (Even tells you where you can get British newspapers.) It still worked for us as a very high level overview of Florida, but to match our families interests, we had to go other places as well. Overall impression: Decent book, but light on specifics or depth of choices. If you are looking for off the beaten track options you might want
