Book: A Year in the Mountains

Today we take you on a mountain trip. We will get to know more and less known mountain animals and observe what they do at different times of day and year. We will meet a highlander, sheep, and a forest spirit who sometimes plays tricks. Put on comfortable shoes, pack a water bottle and sandwich in your backpack, and come admire the mountain nature! In the foothills, a stream flows swiftly, trout splash in it, and colorful dragonflies fly over the meadow. You may encounter roe deer, sometimes a fox or hare crosses the path. In winter, sheep that have come down from the mountain pastures live in the pen. On the slopes, the terrain is steep, and you can get quite tired walking. But the views make up for all the effort! Badgers and martens romp here, owls, grouse, tits, and bats fly around. The highest mountain tier, pastures, and peaks are inhabited by marmots, chamois, ibex, and large eagles. Besides, there are many small rodents, beetles, and other interesting creatures. “Year in the Mountains” contains twelve spreads showing changes throughout the year at various mountain levels – foothills, slopes, peaks, and pastures. Thanks to this, young readers will learn about the richness of mountain flora and fauna. Two additional spreads present the characters and an interactive game. “Year in the Mountains” provides hours of entertainment. It stimulates imagination, develops observation skills, logical thinking, cause-effect relationships, and storytelling ability.
