All across this wondrous state,
Letters A through Z await…
In a series of twenty-six stunning photographs, Joe Rossi explores the beauty of Minnesota’s great outdoors. In a tangle of tree branches he discovers the letter A. In the pattern of a turtle’s shell he finds the letter B.
David LaRochelle’s lyrical text invites readers to step outside and take a closer look at nature for themselves, while his informational sidebars provide fascinating facts about each photo.
What are you waiting for? Go outside and discover your own hidden alphabet!
