Overview

Many of North America's most beloved regions are artfully celebrated in these board books designed to soothe children before bedtime while instilling an early appreciation for the continent's natural and cultural wonders. Each book stars a multicultural group of people visiting the featured area's attractions and rhythmic language guides children through the passage of both a single day and the four seasons while saluting the iconic aspects of each place. Highlighting downstate Illinois icons--the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum, the Illinois State Fair, the University of Illinois campus, and Shawnee National Forest--this tour of the Land of Lincoln visits Quad City notables including the John Deere Pavilion and the Mississippi River and its famed riverboats; and Route 66. Children can also say goodnight to Chicagoland favorites: the Brookfield Zoo, Chicago Children's Museum, Chicago pizza, the John Hancock Observatory, and the Illinois Railway Museum.
