Description
The Grand Canyon is a natural wonder that has been shaped by millions of years of erosion. This Caldecott Honor Book tells the story of a remarkable place, 277 miles long and over a mile deep, where plants and animals have lived and evolved for millennia. A father and daughter explore the canyon, discovering life both present and past. The book features perfectly placed die cuts that show how fossils today were creatures much longer ago, in different environments. A double gatefold and an intricate map add to the book's visual appeal, while extensive back matter provides further information about this incredible natural wonder. With its unique blend of science, nature, and history, this book is a great choice for anyone interested in learning more about the Grand Canyon and its fascinating story.
