Description
What a great and fun way to introduce an aspect of U.S. geography. With cute caricatures to depict each National Park, this book is divided into 7 geographical areas with each park indicated by a red dot on a U.S. map in the corner. A brief introduction to the location, its history, and what it is known for is given along with a few factoids for each park. A great book to keep on hand for fun and for information. There is an index and a glossary in the back. The 7 geographical areas are also color coordinated and provide a helpful tab along the side. 128 pgs, hc. ~Rebecca

Paddle a canoe through the Everglades, zip down gypsum dunes at White Sands, and count the brown bears at Katmai. There’s no end to the natural wonders you’ll see.
