The ‘A Walk With…’ series
Picture books for the walks that matter, the ones where a child and someone they trust talk honestly about life.
Why this series…
Written and illustrated by Mary Jean Blaisdell, EdD, a retired special education teacher and elementary school principal, each book in the "A Walk With..." series pairs a child with a trusted adult on a walk through nature. Together they talk through one of life's harder truths, aging, illness, loss, change, or the choices we make, with warmth, honesty, and just enough humor to make it feel okay.
