Artist and Naturalist Shirley Spencer creates a celebration of our National Parks and Monuments with bold, vibrant and stylized watercolor paintings in this unique alphabet book. From A (Acadia National Park) to Z (Zion National Park), each letter explores the natural wonders of parks, both famous and lesser known. Younger readers can relate a letter of the alphabet with one of our priceless natural treasures. Older children can identify animals and plants pictured with each park's unique habitat. Adults can connect with the signature landscape features of each park, both familiar and perhaps yet to be visited. Everyone will enjoy this colorful and abstract yet exquisitely detailed tribute to our National Parks and Monuments. Softcover Edition.
