Publisher's Summary
Join Clementine on a Desert Adventure in the Colorado Dobies!
Join Coover, Conrad, and their mighty dog, Clementine, as they explore one of the most unique landscapes in southern Colorado--the Grand Mesa! Their grandma takes them to the Dobies, a series of steep hills made from adobe clay that formed as the nearby volcanoes, now extinct, eroded. At first, Coover feels a little sad and lonely, but as he is introduced to the rich wildlife--from woodpeckers to toads, cattails and sunflowers--he feels stronger and more confident. As both boys tramp through their imaginative journey, the vivid history and beautiful scenery awaken them to a new world full of possibility and friendship. By the end of the day, everyone is happily exhausted and ready for the next adventure!

What the critics say
"A fun and insightful adventure with vivid visual descriptions and language that engages and challenges readers--both young and old. The paintings leap off the pages and into your imagination. A poetic and visual treat!" (Marisa Donnelly, author of Somewhere on a Highway)
“Hiking the Grand Mesa is an essential book for today’s children. Kyle Torke immerses them into nature’s creations while providing a springboard for vocabulary development, contextual learning, and nourishment of imaginations. Cuddle and connect with your children as you read and wonder together.” (Holli Kenley, author, Pilates for Parenting: Stretch Yourself & Strengthen Your Family and Power Down & Parent Up)
