Reviews for To Find Treasure in the Mountains

Foreword Reviews, Starred Review: Fostering love for the natural world, this picture book pairs lush illustrations with notes about the accessibility of interacting with the wild. You don't need magic to find treasures, it declares-just sturdy shoes and a spirit of adventure! Follow along as a diverse group of children ready their knapsacks with snacks, water, and the tools of the trail, heading off to wonder at tall trees, cheerful birdsong, changing skies, and alighting butterflies. Soon you'll be aching for outdoor adventures, too! (July/August 2022) The Picture Book Buzz on Maria Marshall - Making Nature Fun: I love hiking, strolling, or sitting and watching - just generally spending time in nature. So it's no wonder I fell in love with this magical book. The shimmering foil on the cover hints at the treasure to be found within. . . .It's a joyous celebration of taking the time to explore nature, observing everything big (deer and lizards) and small (ants and butterflies), sitting still and listening, and being brave as a black bear/ and as steady as a mountain lion.
