Set off on a year-round journey into the mountains and watch how nature changes across different altitude zones. The book offers 12 large-format fold-out double-page spreads packed with details, animals, and plants, plus 2 extra fold-out pages introducing the heroes and an interactive game. It’s great for developing observation skills, imagination, and storytelling.
Put on comfortable shoes and come explore the mountain world from the foothills all the way to the highest peaks. You’ll see what happens in the mountains at different times of day and throughout the year – by a stream with trout, in meadows with dragonflies, and in forests where a roe deer, fox, or hare darts by.
Higher up on the slopes it gets steeper, but the reward is amazing views and more mountain residents: badgers and martens, eagle-owls, small birds, and bats. On the bare ridges and rocky crags you’ll meet marmots, chamois, ibex, and majestic eagles – along with lots of small rodents, beetles, and other fascinating creatures.
What the book brings to children:
- An overview of nature’s changes throughout the year in different mountain zones (foothills, forest belts, alpine meadows and rocky areas).
- Hours of fun thanks to richly detailed illustrations and searching for hidden details.
- Support for skills: observation, logical thinking, finding connections, and storytelling.
- Plus interactive fun on the extra fold-out pages.
