The Camping Trip that Changed America by Barb Rosenstock
Caldecott medalist Mordicai Gerstein captures the majestic redwoods of Yosemite in this little-known but important story from our nation's history. In 1903, President Theodore Roosevelt joined naturalist John Muir on a trip to Yosemite. Camping by themselves in the uncharted woods, the two men saw sights and held discussions that would ultimately lead to the establishment of our National Parks.Barb Rosenstock, an Orbis Pictus Honoree, grew up in a rural area south of Chicago. Barb married and raised two sons who were huge fans of picture books, so she read a lot of them. While pursuing a master's degree in education, she began writing for children.
