Inhaltsangabe

A colorful and interactive adventure for young readers through St. Louis's Forest Park.

When Forest Park opened in 1876, people in the busy city of St. Louis flocked there to relax, play, and breathe fresh air. As the city grew and changed, so did the park. But what hasn’t changed―even 150 years later―is that Forest Park remains a beautiful, bustling place open to everyone.

Finding Forest Park brings St. Louis’s favorite green space to life for explorers ages three to seven. Readers will experience all kinds of moments from the park’s history, from the 1904 World’s Fair to modern-day trips to the zoo. Along the way, children will hunt for objects as they learn how one of America’s great city parks took shape. Playful illustrations combine different eras with different seasons, and fun facts turn history into a game of discovery. Finding Forest Park is a dynamic mix of seek-and-find, picture book, and history adventure that bridges generations by introducing kids to the park’s beloved traditions and celebrating all there is to see and do.
