Glacier: Kids' Guide to History, Wildlife, Trails, and Park Preservation
Young readers will discover the story of the land that is now Glacier National Park and learn how it has long been connected to the Blackfeet Nation. They’ll explore the park’s amazing wildlife, its more than 2,000 kinds of plants, and why it’s so important to keep the park clean and protect its shrinking glaciers.
Kids will also find out about fun things to do in the park—like hiking along mountain trails, biking through forests, and riding on the famous Red Buses to see towering peaks and sparkling teal‑blue lakes. And did you know that Glacier National Park is in both the United States (Montana) and Canada?
They’ll learn about the park’s special world biosphere reserve, where scientists study ways to protect nature and help plants and animals thrive. Beautiful photos show what Glacier looks like today and what it looked like long ago, before it became a national park.
Fun facts, chapter notes, suggested reading, and a helpful glossary make it easy for curious explorers to keep learning even more.
