Harper and Dalton enjoyed meeting Steven Kirkpatrick during his signing on Saturday for his new book Among the Animals:Mississippi. The pictures in here are amazing. The kids will love looking at these images again and again. There is so much to talk while exploring each page. The animals and wildlife are so colorful and each page encourages discussion about places around Mississippi and in our backyard. Another nature book Birding for Children is also in heavy rotation at our house. This book by Art Minton with beautiful illustrations by Patrick Grogan is specifically for children and has really gotten our whole family interested in looking for birds around our house. It is wonderful that these two books are not only lovely, well done resources for natural life but also that they were created by our talented neighbors here in Jackson.
