Au cœur des forêts #[nn]

Part of the French youth adventure series *Les Branches Nature*, this 2006 volume from Éditions Petit à Petit invites readers to soar high above a sweeping river valley blanketed in lush forest. The cover shows a group of enthusiastic kids leaning over the railing of what appears to be a gondola or airship basket, one clutching a telescope as they gaze out over the breathtaking woodland panorama below. It's a warm, adventurous image that perfectly captures the spirit of discovery at the heart of this nature-focused series.
