Young readers take a “walk in the woods” to a little A-frame cabin filled with joy and wonder in Ashley Archuleta’s delightful children’s book, The Happy A-Frame in the Woods.
The Happy A-Frame in the Woods includes beautiful illustrations of the cabin noted in the text. Nestled within a lush and verdant wooded setting, it does indeed look as snug and warm as the narration suggests. Indeed, eye-catching and colorful illustrations coupled with vivid descriptions and lyrical prose undergird this warm and winsome read.
A “warm and welcoming retreat, For all who seek its comfort and peace,” the little cabin encourages family togetherness and making memories within a “cozy home where memories are lifelong.” Parents or grandparents might want to grab a copy of this book prior to their next family picnic, hiking trip, visit to a local, state, or national park, or camping adventure. It would make a great read aloud around a campfire.
This book is a delight. The story is accompanied by beautiful illustrations and a text with a lively narrative cadence. The illustrations are sure to delight and enchant young readers. Sentences are short and easy to digest and won’t strain young attention spans. The writing style is informative and graceful without becoming too taxing or technical for young readers.
Writing a three hundred word review of a book that consists of one page and about two hundred and fifty words is a challenge. But this is a sweet and charming read that little ones will enjoy as it takes them on an adventure into nature and the Great Outdoors. It would make an excellent choice for a bedtime story – or anytime. So if you’re looking for an easy to understand introduction to nature, The Happy A-Frame in the Woods is a clear winner.
