Delaney McIntyre's all-American eighth-grade dreams crumble when her parents announce their five-month family field trip. And despite her begging, bawling, and silent treatment, Delaney can't derail their obvious midlife crisis.
Seventh-grade Riley McIntyre is thrilled to ditch middle school for world school. The late bloomer dreams of bungee jumping in New Zealand and completing the Riley Reinvention Project during this global adventure.
What about school? Forget science and math. The only way to pass this class is to survive:- Public nudity in Iceland

- Monster cockroaches in Panama
- Scam artists in Italy
- Projectile puking in Indonesia
- Toilet catastrophes in Thailand
...and many more horrifying and humiliating lessons that aren't in their textbooks! Each day is a real-life social studies class where the sisters must navigate new countries, cultures, and religions-while also navigating adolescence.
But when a flight mistake leads to the family's detention in a communist country, the sisters face the ultimate challenge. Will they fail the assignment? Or will they find their way home?In this thrilling and witty account of their family's trek over four continents, author Kellie McIntyre deftly weaves her own experiences with her daughters' blogs and personal journals into a one-of-a-kind travel memoir. And as readers of all ages follow them around the world, they'll be inspired to abandon their comfort zones for priceless life lessons.
The Passport Project is a captivating true story perfect for middle graders, teenagers, and families. If you like unique perspectives, education outside the box, and inspirational transformations, then you'll love Kellie McIntyre's eye-opening exploration.
