That wikipedia page doesn't seem to reference that her book was the basis of a beautiful picture book by National Geographic, From Alice to Ocean, perhaps notable here because the book included a CD-ROM, making it an early attempt at multimedia presentation.

Some reviews of the CD-ROM from a 1994 college class:

(Scroll down to Multimedia Reviews and there four student reviews of the CD.)

Oh, literally around! As in circumnavigate.

(I once circumnavigated a country on foot but it was merely the Vatican.)

Years ago there was a beautiful book published called From Alice to Ocean about a woman who walked across the Western deserts of Australia:

It was notable at the time also because it was one of the early uses of CD-ROM to add a multimedia component.
