Illustrated by
Krista Brauckmann-Towns.
Illustrated with expansive, realistic paintings in greens, golds, and blues, a well-written text follows Young Bison from spring to winter. A tornado and a prairie fire provide some drama, but the story is mainly a vehicle for conveying nature information. A double-page foldout at the back identifies plants and animals, and an afterword explains The Nature Conservancy's work on Oklahoma's Tallgrass Prairie Preserve.
