My Adventure in the California Chaparral

An easy to understand story that leads the reader through the Chaparral and introduces the most important elements. Green sidebars give helpful hints about the “breaking news” from the Chaparral--(Did you hear that...?) Blue boxes introduce simple facts about plants, climate, and animals. Stickers make it possible to interact with the story. This way the reader becomes part of the story and at the same time learns more about the excursion or hiker's adventure. Numerous wonderful photographs help the reader recognize the diversity and colorful environment, which calms an individual down if he or she is too stressed, helps to regenerate concentration power if scattered, and fills the reader with new energy to survive daily difficulties.
