This Children's Book is Grand!. The photography in this book is just spectacular. The links and enhanced features make it fun to explore the various aspects of the Grand Canyon; the animals, anthropology, and more. Kristi Kay is an enduring dog that leads children along on her adventures with Gerri, an Abert Squirrel and Alex, a California Condor. Hopefully they help children to value why we need to protect such beautiful places as the Grand Canyon and endangered animals like the condor. The links and enhanced features will help children who want to learn even more!

Exceptional Photography and Writing. This delightful, interactive, informational book will not disappoint. The impressive photography, vibrant graphics and incredible wildlife will entertain not only children, but their parents as well. Follow Kristi Kay's photographic adventures as she explores the majestic Grand Canyon with her friends Alex, the California Condor, and Gerri, The Abert's Squirrel. This book is a must for families visiting and learning about the Grand Canyon and its inhabitants. As a National Park's and Junior Ranger enthusiast, I am anticipating reading the author's next book on Yellowstone.

I'd follow Kristi Kay anywhere!. I'm a sucker for an animal tale, especially those that teach about nature. Kristi Kay has stolen my heart! This book includes stunning photography, a wealth of information about one of America's National Parks, and the answers to questions on everything you'd ever want to know about the national treasure. A younger child will enjoy reading about Kristi Kay's adventure, and the interactivity, while older children will find the educational supplements very interesting. This iBook offers a very thorough lesson that will make you feel as if you'd taken the trip yourself. A must have book for families planning a trip to the Grand Canyon or for those that would like to learn more about one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.

Mysteries of the Grand Canyon. This is a charming and educational book which gives a lot of interesting facts about the Grand Canyon, while captivating young readers. Kristi Kay is a cute dog with an inquisitive personality who visits the Grand Canyon with her owner, Marie. Kristi meets several local animal residents, such as a condor, and a squirrel, who teach her a lot about themselves and the magical place where they live. This interactive book would be appropriate for a classroom full of young learners, or for a family with young children who want to discover the wonderful national parks we have in our country. I used to be an educator and I would have been delighted to have books of this quality available for my students. Mary Lane

Outstanding Book!. Kristi Kay Discovers the Mysteries of the Grand Canyon is a great way to learn about all of the natural wonders of the Grand Canyon. The book has amazing pictures, and is a great way to get excited about such a unique place! I like how you can explore extra details about some topics with interactive links right in the story. Kristi Kay is a cute puppy who shares stories about the history of the canyon and the animals that live in the canyon, and how they came to be there. She has a unique view because she is a animal, too. As an 12 year old avid reader, I would recommend this book to all ages. The pictures are fantastic for all readers, especially younger children, and the book has plenty of information for more mature readers.This book is a perfect mix of facts, imagination, and fun!

Heart-warming, fun, beautiful. Wow, what a heart-warming, fun, and beautiful iBook. Like the entertaining story, clear organization, and easy navigation. The photos are scenic with depth and vibrant color. In one of the videos, a flight above part of the Grand Canyon makes me feel like a bird soaring over it. Pleasantly surprised by the extensive education section. Satisfying interactive experience in it with optional, additional movies, photos, maps, charts, etc. all a click away. Excellent overall.

Teacher, Hope Christian Academy. As a teacher, I am grateful to use this amazing book with my class! My students loved learning about the Grand Canyon from precious Kristi Kay's point of view, and they were excited to participate in the interactive aspects of the book; they didn't want to put it down! I appreciate how it complements the Arizona objectives of our curriculum and will certainly use this Discovery series with my classes for years to come! Thanks Marie Von Minden for authoring a book that is engaging, educational, and so much fun! "I can learn a bunch from it!" - Ella "The author has a very creative mind!" - Keara "Very adventurous!" -Ruby "I like how you can tell how Kristi Kay feels." - Madelyn "I like how the paw prints let you do things." - Corbin "The photos were so real and awesome!" - Ellie "This is the coolest book ever!" - Caleb

Great Book!. This book, with its beautiful pictures and stories entices you to visit Grand Canyon National Park and follow Kristi Kay's paws' steps. A lot of great information not only for children. Can't wait to see where Kristi Kay travels next.

A Great Addition. A must have experience for young people. With its a cute, intelligent looking dog, and a bird that looks like it was conceived by Dr. Seuss, it puts us into an animal society - so beautifully conceived in its civility, generosity, and interest and care for the world - that it is reminescent of books like Winnie the Pooh. These elements, set in the grandeur of the Grand Canyon, beautifully brought out by magnificent photographs and videos, make it a compelling book from both parent's and teacher's points of view. I feel that it, and others like it, will become a basic part of the newly possible learning experience for young people. In the end it is much more than a tour guide. I wish there were more such stories available.

Children Will Love It!. Kristi Kay is a Cairn Terrier, As cute as can be. She wants to show you the Grand Canyon, So come along and see. You will meet her friends the Condor, And a friendly Abert's Squirrel. Come along on an adventure with them, And explore their Canyon world. The Grand Canyon is a Wonder, There is so much to see and do. But Kristi Kay and her friends, Will make it easy for you. Hike to the bottom of the Canyon, It is a mile deep! Once you have gone on this adventure, You will have memories to keep. You will learn about the layers of rock, They hold treasures galore. There were ancient people, Who lived on the Canyon floor. Kristi Kay is waiting for you, Her tail is wagging away. She wants to show you the Grand Canyon, In her own special way!

Beautiful book to cherish and enjoy. Beautifully done exciting adventure into the wonders and beauty of the Grand Canyon! We love looking at the pictures, clicking on the paws for extras and listening to the added audio. My son and I love this book. The layout is very nicely done making the experience something special. The cute dog guide is kid friendly and teaches them about this gorgeous location, words they may not be familiar with and animals they might otherwise know nothing about. The size might be a bit off putting to some but it's well worth the download. Even my older kids found a spot to view this book as we enjoyed reading it.

A Great Learning Experience. I loved this book! It is such a fun, creative and informative way to show children the many joys of this magical place. Kids will be even more excited to visit the Canyon after learning its interesting story brought to life by this curious little dog.

Grand introduction to Grand Canyon!. As a resident of the Grand Canyon State, I am happy to see such a beautiful and unique publication for young children. The photography in this ebook is spectacular, and it is bound to inspire both parents and children. The adventure story of this cute little dog is packed with information about our national park. Kristi Kay's curiosity and her appreciation of what she is seeing and learning brings children closer to nature. This ebook for young children is a wonderful introduction to the grandeur of nature.

Beautiful Book, Amazing Photography, Cute Puppy, Educational. What more could you ask for? As a native Arizonan teaching my kids about the rich culture of our state is important. Our state has been influenced by so many different cultures and each has left a unique mark. This book focuses on the Grand Canyon and shares the amazing adventures of this little pup. My youngest daughter (5) loved it for the puppy of course. My son (11) loved it for the Native American history. My oldest daughter (14) loved the photography. Beautiful book.

A WONDERFUL RESOURCE!. Though the perspective of both an educator and a parent I heartily recommend MYSTERIES OF THE GRAND CANYON by author and photographer Marie von Minden. It’s an essential tool for teachers planning a social studies unit and for parents hoping to explore the beauty, history, and life in the Canyon with their children. The author has woven spectacular photography, an engaging main character: the terrier Kristi Kay, a fun adventure, and a factual foundation into an interactive experience children will love to explore.
