Picture Books with a Purpose - Out and About in my Boots

Picture Books with a Purpose: The Environment.

'Boots! That's what every young explorer needs. This book shows you some of the things you might discover when you go out and about.' This lift-the-flap book is a fun way to help children take notice of and care for their immediate environment. Taking children on a walk of discovery to all the places that boots might be worn - the park, the woods and the pond - the simple message and flaps on each page encourage children to be still and quiet - and then they might notice little things like mice in wet grass, frogs in muddy puddles, tiny flowers and insects under logs.
