Goodreads Synopsis:
Mrs. Badger, an avid collector and naturalist, takes a weekly journey up to Sugarloaf Peak, greeting her friends on the way and sharing her discoveries with them. One day she meets Lulu, a very small cat, who wants to go with her to the top of the mountain. On the way, Lulu learns to take care of the natural world, help those in need, and listen to her intuition. Rich in wisdom and beautifully illustrated, Up the Mountain Path offers a profound story full of lessons about love, generosity, and following one's heart.
Review:
Such a heartwarming book. I love adventures and hiking and finding new places or new things in places I have been before. This book embraces the little things as well as bigger concepts like friendship, encouragement, and passing of the torch and traditions. For being so simply put together the book said so much. We follow a simple tale about Mrs. Badger walking up the mountain everyday. She is joined by Lulu who learns all about the mountain from Mrs. Badger and so much more. The illustrations are gorgeous, pastel colored with such wonderful detail. Some pages are full images some are just smaller ones that build the concepts. All are wonderfully done and right where you want/need them.
This is a beautiful children's book and I highly recommend it. I will actually be sharing this title with some parents that I know for their young ones - I really adored it.
