(4) K-3 Illustrated by Ashley Wolff. Colorful and often beautiful illustrations, in vibrant orange and pink, accompany occasionally awkward rhyming text that strives to capture the wonder of a trek down the Grand Canyon. Several birds are identified but not much other wildlife. The fragmented narrative, told by a little girl, is more impressionistic than informative.
