"We can help our meadows, too!" Grassy, flower-filled meadows are really pretty! It's oh-so tempting to hike and skip right through them. But meadows are actually fragile, and human footsteps and picnics can cause them harm--and then they cannot do their important work of providing habitat for creatures and plants, filtering water, and even storing carbon. The bouncy text and vibrant illustrations in this sturdy board book show little nature lovers how to easily protect meadows while enjoying one of Earth's loveliest features.
