Rocky Mountain Rangers: Guardians of the Wild

Based on the song “Government Cowboy” by Alberta-based band The Wardens, Rocky Mountain Rangers: Guardians of the Wild is an exciting adventure through a national park told in rhyming verse. The illustrations produced from hand-carved images give the book a unique artistic feel that further enhances the experience for early readers, who may not be able to read the text by themselves. The book highlights the animals and environment of the Rockies, provides examples of rhyming, and—if used with the song—shows how lyrics can lead to a book or vice versa. This book is also available in French.
