Fun in the Mud: A Wetlands Tale by Sally Bolger

informative reflective relaxing

5.0

Fun in the Mud is a beautifully written and illustrated book about wetlands for children age 3 and up. Part fantasy/myth, part nature guide, part reflection on the value of slowing down to appreciate nature, this is a book that kids and grownups alike will love. The author was involved in the planned restoration of the Giacomini Wetlands, and her love for the area shines in this book. I did read this to my two-year old, but because of the more gentle, minimalist art style and good number of words, he wasn't as into it. But it's definitely a book I would buy and keep for when he's a little older!

Thanks to Roundtree Books and to Netgalley for an eARC in exchange for an honest review.
