Twelve Days at Glacier
“Perfect for families who love national parks.”
“On the FIRST day at Glacier, the park showed to me an eagle in a pine tree.”
Nature lovers of all ages will enjoy Sue Sutherland’s debut picture book about the wonders at Glacier National Park.

“Counting, Critters and Cuteness-
Kids will practice their counting skills within the context of learning about nature and our national parks in a delightfully humorous way.”
“A delightful musical romp through Glacier Park that’ll have you singing along (to the tune of The 12 Days of Christmas) and marveling at the beautiful and humorous illustrations!”
