“Let’s go for a wander”

by edith marie karras

 

We don’t always have to travel far to experience new sights and make new discoveries. Sometimes, when you take it slow and allow yourself to roam, you may notice things you’ve passed by dozens of times before; or you may see familiar landmarks in a new light.

Let’s Go For A Wander, a new children’s picture book published by Beaver’s Pond Press, encapsulates the memories of those “wanders” Ms. Karras took with her son so many years ago. The book asks the reader, ‘What will we see?’, throughout the seasons. Kids playing, city critters like geese and turtles, flowers and trees in different states – all greet the reader in colorful photos taken in and around Powderhorn Park in Minneapolis.

 

“Words cannot express how much I love this book. I was reading it to a small group of young children when it was time to go home, and once I read just a few pages, every child was listening, completely captivated. Please tell Edie that her book is very, very appreciated.”

— Gina, Montessori Children’s House Guide
