The Path

Meet three kids on their usual walk down the path near their house. Every day, they notice something new: the trail, the plants and the animals - some of the changes are almost too small to recognize! With sketchbooks under their arms and a magnifying glass in hand, each child interacts with the path in a different way. Together, they create a whole world for themselves. The Path (working title) encourages us to take a closer look and be curious about our surroundings. For readers of all ages, this book shows that the only thing we can count on for certain is change.
