Janice Lee Porter.
From agriculture to zoos, this book informs the reader about the state of Minnesota. The text is dry, but the subject matter should interest Minnesotans. The acrylic paintings, which use the nubby canvas to convey texture, dominate the pages, adding interest to the brief paragraphs of information about the state's history, geography, wildlife, and notable citizens.
