Google Lit Trips are free, downloadable files that mark the journeys of characters from famous literature on the surface of Google Earth. At each location along the journey, there are placemarks with pop-up windows containing a variety of resources including relevant media, thought-provoking discussion starters, and links to supplementary information about "real world" references made in that particular portion of the story. According to their creator, Google Lit Trips "three-dimensionalize the reading experience by placing readers 'inside the story' traveling alongside the characters; looking through the windshield of that old jalopy in The Grapes of Wrath or waddling alongside Mr. and Mrs. Mallard's duckling family in Make Way for Ducklings."
