The book is divided into 26 units (one for each letter of the alphabet) each presenting a story or cronica Each unit has pre-reading exercises to encourage students to converse, post-reading activities to be done individually or in groups, and grammar and vocabulary review. Students are also encouraged to write about their own travel experiences, and to reflect on Brazilian culture, as well as American.
