This is fantastic! We want to take this trip sometime too. "One Morning in Maine" was one of my mom's and my favorite books to read. I only recently discovered "Make Way".
30 minutes north, Rockport, home of Virginia Lee Burton for a time and good kids beach (small town w lobster/candy shops etc), or go to the Somerville Library right now and meet my wife and our 2 kids... HA! (tru grounds coffeee shop in somerville has the best blueberry muffins... )
Love Boston Public Garden, agree there should be more landmarks in honour of children's books, and think Rockport is great too, I went from Boston to Rockport by train which was also a treat..
