KIWI Magazine Review:

If you give this book to your favorite kid, be prepared to pack a bag and head out to visit at least one of the US National Parks.  This full-color fabulous book will have the whole family dreaming and scheming to visit each and every park.  It is lovely, educational, and inspiring photography accompanied by just enough text to keep it interesting.  National Geographic is the gold standard for nonfiction for kids, and this book does not disappoint. Summer is just around the corner, so get reading and then get packing!
