Abby Leighton visited her first national park in 2014 and has been inspired ever since. She received her BFA in Illustration in 2019 from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York. She now lives in Moab, Utah, designing souvenirs for the parks.
“This succinct look at all 62 U.S. National Parks is ideal for armchair travel, preparing for vacation, and getting background for reports. Leighton’s maps feature drawings of mountains, animals, plants, and other features, and the Southwestern style of her cartoon illustrations creates a dreamy feel that will draw readers in and entice them to learn more. Great for classroom and public library geography and travel collections.”
“Explore all 62 national parks without having to pack up your RV. Living in the United States we are lucky to be able to enjoy these magnificent sites without having to travel far. The new book, National Parks Maps transports readers to all of these locations through beautiful illustrations from Abby Leighton."
“Perfect for nature fans of all ages!”
“Leighton’s illustrations are similar in tone and feel to the iconic WPA national park posters from the 1930s and ’40s, and they’re complemented by detailed blocks of text that highlight what’s cool about each park. The book is a playful, pretty introduction to what these parks have to offer, and it doesn’t risk overwhelming young readers: Our 8 year old remained engaged and interested to learn more the whole way through.”
“Do you have an REI shopping, Chaco or Teva wearing, lover of the wilderness, National Parks pass having friend or loved one? Or are YOU that friend like I am? If you answered yes to any of the above, you need this book. Abby Leighton's art is BEAUTIFUL, the pages are informative, and you just might be inspired to plan your next National Parks trip! A great primer also for introducing children to National Parks and their history.”
