A lovely introduction to a lot of the national parks around the US!

Separated out by regions, there‘s brief blurbs for all sorts of national parks. Then there‘s more in depth explorations of several of the parks.

The adorable artwork illustrates animals, plants, notable landmarks, & exciting phenomena in all of these locations.

This was a delight to share with my nibling, and I can‘t wait to take them to see these places! 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗

I borrowed this one from the library, and now I want a copy! This book is so beautiful! It features some of the National Parks of the United States with wonderful illustrations that highlight the flora, fauna, and other defining characteristics of each area. This one is the Great Smoky Mountains, which is the one in the book I live closest to.

This book is amazing. The illustrations are wonderful. My son loved the drawings. I also loved how the writer organized by the National Parks by area. This would be a wonderful coffee table book for both children and adults alike. They could actually do other books like these, maybe different countries and what can be seen/done in that specific country. It will be sort of a travel guide for families with kids.
