Description

Many of North America's most beloved regions are artfully celebrated in these boardbooks designed to soothe children before bedtime while instilling an early appreciation for the continent's natural and cultural wonders. Each book stars a multicultural group of people visiting the featured area's attractions--such as the Rocky Mountains in Denver, the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta, Lake Ontario in Toronto, and volcanoes in Hawaii. Rhythmic language guides children through the passage of both a single day and the four seasons while saluting the iconic aspects of each place. The iconic aspects of the great state of Florida are featured in this board book that visits such places as the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico, orange groves, amusement parks, the Everglades, the Kennedy Space Center, the Daytona 500 and much more.
