The Mountain Boy

?The Mountain Boy? by Christina Pag's is the first in a series of children's books called ?Nature Children.? This first book is set in a California landscape and features a boy, Joshua, who solves a problem in the world around his country cottage through his unique relationships and deep concern for the living things around him. Each book in the series will be set in a different U.S. state to show how a child's ?nature relationship? ? the unique and magical sense of connection to surroundings ? can bring about a happier environment.
