Are there any special themes Mr. Carman is trying to explore in each series?
Elliot’s Park is all about cooperation in solving problems and being willing to ask for help. The importance of teamwork and friendship are also key themes. The Land of Elyon is largely about finding your place in the world, overcoming fear, and not reading a book by its cover. Atherton is at once about protecting the world we live in and having the courage to change and grow.
