From Park to Playa: The Trails That Connect Us

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Sophie Diao. This lively picture book takes readers on an exploration of the Park to Playa Trail through Los Angeles. Each vignette opens with “My park to playa is...” and describes a different spot on the path where community members enjoy nature and the city together, observing wildlife, celebrating a birthday, and stargazing. Layered digital illustrations feature diverse groups of people and beautiful landscapes throughout the day. An author’s note and “Critters and curiosities” list encourage exploration of nature in readers’ own cities.
