Finding Forest Park: A Seek and Find Book
Building off of the artwork created for the Missouri History Museum’s Forest Park at 150 mural, author Amanda Clark and I created this companion children’s book of seasonal scenes in Forest Park.
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.
20 pages, 10 x 8.5”, gloss paperback. Available from the Missouri History Museum’s store.
