#1 New York Times bestselling authors former First Lady Laura Bush
and her daughter Jenna Bush Hager have created an exuberant picture book
tribute to our national parks and the importance and fun of connecting
with nature.
Our Great Big Backyard follows Jane, whose plans of spending the
summer playing video games with her friends are dashed when her parents
announce that her family is going on a road trip to national parks
around the country. Yet somewhere between the Everglades and Big Bend
National Park, things begin to change.
Jane starts paying attention to the magnificent sights and spends less
time looking at her screen. The stunning views open up her imagination
as she and her brother see everything that nature has to offer.
And the more Jane discovers, the more she realizes how much there is to
love about the outdoors--whether she's in a national park across the
country or right in her own backyard.
