Nature Is Everywhere

Explore the outdoors, wherever you are! Even among the hustle and bustle of city streets, you can find nature. Discover buzzing bees in community gardens and daisies sprouting from concrete. When the sun isn't shining, you can find a puddle to splash in. When the seasons change, you can still spot a cardinal in the snow. Warm and playful, Nature Is Everywhere invites young readers, whether they are in big cities, suburban towns, or rural communities, to slow down, look closely, and find the natural world in the most unexpected places. Studies show that spending time in nature is good for mental health. This culturally inclusive book encourages everyone to enjoy those benefits, no forest required. Because even small doses can go a long way toward feeling calmer and happier.
