If you were a national park ranger, you'd spend every day in one of the most treasured places in America. You'd have an amazing job protecting animals, the environment, and our country's natural and historical heritage, from the wilds of Denali to the Statue of Liberty!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This book is fantastic. It not only highlights the amazing national parks from across America, but also highlights those that protect, help and educated within those parks. I loved the illustrations, they really helped bring the parks to life and create a curiosity of travel, exploration, conservation and the joy of being outside for readers both young and old. I just adored this book and know that readers will be amazed by the beauty that lies within these parks, plus they will understand that these parks need our protection. A great book for home and school! View all my reviews
