An inspiring children’s book about the endangered prairie ecosystem and how we can help restore it.
Phyllis Root with Illustrations by Betsy Bowen
Phyllis Root and Betsy Bowen take young readers on a trip to one of Minnesota’s important ecosystems—the prairie—teaching children how changes in one part of the system affect every other part. The book shows what happens when we work to restore the prairies, encouraging readers to “plant a pocket of prairie” in their own backyards.
