Explore Canada

Jocey Asnong's Explore Canada takes young readers on a playful geographic journey through the country. Rhythmic text and whimsical illustrations connect places with outdoor traditions, animals and recognizable regional details, from loon calls in Ontario and hockey on Winnipeg river ice to tobogganing in Quebec City and summer landscapes in Newfoundland.

Forests, wetlands, mountains, tundra, prairies and tide pools give children an early sense of Canada's environmental variety. Native species, landmarks and wildlife habitats are presented alongside provinces, territories and capital cities, allowing the book to work as both a story-like reading experience and an introduction to basic Canadian geography.

Designed for families, classrooms and libraries, this hardcover edition supports early learning, social studies and shared reading while giving children a colourful first look at the country's regions and landscapes.
