National Parks A to Z captures the emotion and spirit of our national parks, using a layered approach that will appeal to young readers of any age.
Each letter of the alphabet features a national park, an animal native to that park, and an outdoor activity associated with the park.
From An Avocet Awakes at Acadia to A Zebra-Tailed Lizard Zonks Out at Zion, the reader travels from park to park, experiencing the landscapes, wildlife, history, and activities that make each park unique.
Gus D'Angelo first fell in love with the outdoors as a child, hiking, fishing, and snowshoeing with his three brothers on his family’s farm.
These early adventures led to his passion for public lands and his hope that all young people get to experience the thrill, mystery, and solitude of the outdoors. Author of San Francisco ABCs and New York ABCs, Gus is an illustrator and animator who now lives in San Francisco with his partner, filmmaker Jennifer Kroot.
We are one of New England’s premier independent bookstores, family-owned and locally run since 1961.
We offer an extensive selection of new, used, and bargain books; unique, beautiful gifts; award-winning events series; and specialty foods. Every day, we strive to foster community through the written word, represent a diverse range of voices and histories, and inspire conversations that enrich our lives.
