A beautiful picture book for and on Roosevelt.

I was drawn to this book as I have visited this national park and Medora. The book addresses the badlands of western North Dakota. The park was established in 1978 and it includes Elkhorn Ranch, the home of Theodore Roosevelt. There are beautiful pictures...

A Hidden Gem of a National Park

by elfgreen (WorldCat user published 2009-01-07) Good

Permalink

This national park is one of the least visited by tourists yet may be least touched by time. The park has three sections to it in North Dakota; having the map earlier in the book would help readers understand the park’s location. Theodore Roosevelt’s influence is very evident and not just in the park’s name. His cabin stands behind the park visitor center and holds some of Roosevelt’s personal things. In spite of Roosevelt’s large influence on national parks and particularly this one, it is a bit confusing about why the chapter about Roosevelt is the book’s longest. It might have strengthened the book if more information had been devoted to the current park. The book ends by mentioning several challenges: increased pollution, managing certain animals and various invasive plants. The book’s glossary is too brief and could describe better various words that might not be familiar to early elementary students. The length of the book could be appropriate for second or third grade yet the vocabulary fits better a fourth to sixth grade. The beautiful photographs could appeal to reluctant readers in the upper elementary grades.
