About This Item
Synopsis
A track is more than just a footprint. Each track tells a story. As you follow the marks an animal left behind, you get to know it: where it goes, what it likes to eat, when it runs, and why. Every set of tracks is unique, as each animal's life is different from every other's. This richly illustrated book introduces young readers to the tracks and the ways of life of thirteen different animals. Betsy Bowen shares the wonder of the northwoods wilderness in this newly designed edition featuring striking multiple-block woodcut prints and new vibrant colors. Life size animal tracks grace each page along with poetic quotes and passages that reveal mysteries of the natural world and inspire respect for its wildlife. Here is a book for young naturalists and beginning trackers, a book that is perfect for a family to share before and after a trek through their own woods.
