Mother Earth: Boreal Beauty of the Peace Country is the perfect Canadian-made gift—a luxurious “book of wonders” that celebrates the region’s biodiversity with 1,200+ stunning photos and playful, informative captions, quotes, stories, and fun facts, including species ID in Latin, French, Beaver, and Cree.
