| Publisher Description: This colorful whirlwind journey across Canada takes young readers from coast to coast to coast, revealing the awe-inspiring scope and iconic images of their amazing country. Like the other bestsellers in the Canada Concept Books series, this book is not only an introduction to Canada, but also a popular souvenir book for tourists and an ideal gift.Bike along PEI's red dirt roads, set sail in Quebec City, help with the harvest near Saskatoon or hike a glacier in Yukon Territory in the company of the familiar lovable cast of animal characters. Along the way, children will learn about the flags and the official trees, flowers and birds of each province or territory. A more immediate and memorable introduction to the imagery of Canada --- and to what makes our country unique --- has never before been published. |
