really pretty! It’s oh-so tempting to hike and skip right through
them. But meadows are actually fragile, and human footsteps and

important work of providing habitat for creatures and plants,
filtering water, and even storing carbon. The bouncy text and
vibrant illustrations in this sturdy board book show little nature
lovers how to easily protect meadows while enjoying one of Earth's
loveliest features.
