Mountains are an impressive sight anywhere in the world but those of the
western mountain region of North America offer riches that are truly
unique. This lavishly illustrated picture book presents snowcapped
peaks, emerald lakes, tall pines and magnificent maples, and a range of
birds and animals that will fill readers of all ages with wonder.
The treasures and mysteries of nature are depicted in twenty-six
full-color paintings, each with a line of alliterative text. Objects
that begin with that letter of the alphabet are waiting to be discovered
in each illustration. Complete with detailed information about each
setting painted, this is a visually and mentally stimulating
experience - from A to Z.
