How better to get kids involved with our world than a sensitive picture book for the younger set?

A young boy goes hiking with his mom across a desert area and down into a canyon. He notices all sorts of wonderful sights and sounds from the crunching of his boots on the stones to the horned lizard tracks, the road runner snatching a rattlesnake, and the riot of wildflowers of a desert in bloom. 

The illustrations, in their soft desert tones, are evocative and have just the pertinent detail that allows the reader to identify each new discovery.

From Andrea's list on inspiring kids to protect our world.
