The Everything Trail by Fleming, Meg

Come along on an eye-popping journey through the forest with a group of young explorers ready to discover everything nature has to offer in this lyrical, awe-inspiring picture book full of "curiosity and wonder" (Publishers Weekly, starred review).

The wind waves its hand.
The trees take a bow.
Everything's big.
And everything's small...

From giant redwoods to tiny saplings, steep canyons to shallow creeks, and soaring eagles to crawling critters, there are endless wonders to discover along a trail through the forest. This sweeping story of a day spent in nature will inspire young readers to soak in all the marvels, big and small, that surround them.
