Attu's Adventures Children's Book Series
Attu’s Adventures are a nature-based educational series aimed at kindergarten through 6th graders. The books are written in an interactive way that brings adults into the learning process with children. There will be over 45 books in the completed series. Each book is based on a National Park or two similar or adjacent parks. Attu researches, visits, and writes about the heart and soul of each of the parks. Some books are history based while others introduce children to natural events like earthquakes and weather.
Attu also introduces the children to National Park Service Rangers and the jobs they do in each park. Our resident expert is Ranger Jenny. She teaches advanced concepts in an easy-to-understand way. Rangers are always viewed in a positive manner and are referred to as the "resident experts" at each park. One of the objectives of this series is to show children that rangers are there to help and teach.
The ultimate objective of the series is to get kids excited about our National Parks and learning. They are the next generation to fund and conserve these lands. My personal hope is that in learning about the wilderness, animals and these parks, many kids will be less likely to get involved with drugs, gangs, and other bad behaviors.
All the books are illustrated with high quality photography, something you won't find in any other book series currently on the market for this age range. This brings the land and animals to the children in a real and tangible way. Attu is also very cute and appeals to the kids in a fun way.
