Product Description
Our alphabet journey takes us next to North Dakota, the home to such wide-eyed wonders as bison, mosasaurs and the Red River. Look to the North Dakota skies for a bald eagle or to the horizon for a wild prairie rose, the state flower. Every letter in the alphabet is another chapter in this land rich with history, people, and nature. But no matter where children look in P is for Peace Garden, they're sure to find the singular treasures-from Knepfla soup to the peace gardens-that make North Dakota what it is.

5.0 out of 5 stars P is For Peace Garden: Not Just For Children, July 18, 2008
By Laurelnd "Kimsmom" (Bismarck, ND United States) - See all my reviews
Having grown up in North Dakota then moved back in mid-life, I wondered what a book in a series of state alphabet books would do with my memories. I was delighted. It invokes everything from the beautiful state flower, the prairie rose, to our bison, badlands, and of course, the International Peace Garden, with its chapel, the only building that straddles an international border. The illustrations are stunning, and the rhymes will be fun for kids, and not too silly for adults. This one's a keeper. Buy two, give one away, and keep one for yourself!
