A.J.'S TIME TRAVELERS-Sir Edmond Hillary & Amerigo Vespucci - Christian Education
Sir Edmond Hillary: Afraid of rejection, A.J. hesitates to ask Rachel to the prom. With the Kyros crew, he lands atop Mount Everest on May 29, 1953, just as Edmond Hillary and Tenzig Norgay reach the peak. After hearing about hazards and obstacles they overcame to reach their goal, A.J. learns you never know how high or how far you can go unless you try your hardest. Amerigo Vespucci: After a classmate takes credit for A.J.'s report, the Kyros crew travels to Seville, Spain in 1508 to meet Amerigo Vespucci, who thinks his own significant accomplishments have gone unheralded and that he has been eclipsed by his friend, Christopher Columbus. Vespucci was the first to grasp that Columbus had discovered an entirely new continent: he is now immortalized in the name of the two continents--North and South America.
