Other books about journeys....

I meant to do this post a week or so ago and I just never got around to it. But even though we've finished So B. It, it's never to late to post a few read-alikes. In So B. It, Heidi goes on a cross-country journey to find out about her past and her family history. If you enjoyed So B. It, here are a few other books about girls on journeys that you might like as well...
