This first person account of Abigail, as she & her family hike through the forest every “first Saturday”, is immediately endearing. We go along with them on their journey, traveling to “their” pond & waterfall. Along the way, there are descriptions of animals with dialogue about God’s intent for His creation. Common names for animals & foliage are included w/in the pages, along with definitions of terms. I received this book from the publisher free of charge w/o expectation of a positive review.
