Ride with President Teddy Roosevelt and John Muir ("Teedie" and "Johnnie") through Yosemite, from the redwood groves to high in the mountains, far above the valley below. Hiking on their own and sleeping outdoors, even when it snowed in May, it was simply glorious. (Picture book)

Before
you visit the Mariposa Grove, walk through time as a little tree
sprouts in the time of the Romans, grows taller and bigger
through the centuries, and is still growing when the pilgrims land
on the shore of America. Illustrations and homey details bring the
giant sequoias to life. (Picture book)
