Description
This book is just as it sounds, 50 Mindful Moments in Nature. The reader will encounter scenes of nature along with realistically adorable animals that demonstrate the well-written dialogue. The beautiful pictures have a hand-drawn appearance and are so full of color! Reading a book like this as a kid would not only have inspired me to learn more about nature and animals, but it also would have inspired the young artist in me to draw scenes from nature. In this book, little ones will visually experience the growth of plants, life at the pond, interactions between prey and predator, transition from day to night, watch a butterfly break free from its chrysalis, and so much more! This is the perfect book for a wind-down reading activity, especially before bed. There’s just something about nature that has a peaceful, thought-provoking effect. This educational book is targeted towards young children, but I think people of all ages would enjoy it. 111 pgs, hc. ~ Brianna
