Peaks & Paws: animals on the ascent

Peaks & Paws: animals on the ascent is a beautifully illustrated children's book that follows a gentle journey from mountain valleys to high alpine peaks, introducing the wildlife that calls the mountains home along the way.Through smooth, rhythmic text and bright, welcoming illustrations, young readers meet familiar animals such as deer, elk, bears, wolves, mountain goats, and eagles as the landscape gradually changes with elevation. Inspired by the Canadian Rockies, the story encourages curiosity about nature while remaining calm, comforting, and ideal for reading aloud.Designed to be enjoyed again and again, Peaks & Paws works equally well as a bedtime story, an early learning book, or a first independent read for emerging readers. With its warm tone and timeless subject matter, it is a thoughtful gift for families, nature lovers, and anyone looking to share a love of wildlife and the outdoors with young children.
