PreS-Gr 1—These titles introduce different places for outdoor activity. They present interesting facts (for instance, "There are more than 10,000 campgrounds in America") and discuss the types of activities kids and families will enjoy doing (for example, canoeing, hiking, and fishing in Campgrounds). Clear and bold, the texts are easy for new readers to decipher, while the design is smooth and uncluttered, with stunning photographs of nature that feature joyful-looking, diverse families. The series emphasizes the importance of exercise, without lecturing readers. At the end of each book, children are asked to reflect on what they learned, which promotes engagement with the text. Accompanying video and audio are available on the publisher's website. Great additions.
