John Wallace’s formal training was not in illustration, but rather theology, which he received at Cambridge University. However, he always loved drawing, and one of his early jobs was as a newspaper cartoonist. In his children’s books illustrations, John is particularly inspired by what he calls “the gooniness” of young school children. John and his family divide their time between Brighton, England, and Long Island, New York.
From the Ready-to-Read Wonders of America series, this book opens with the 1872 law that set aside land creating Yellowstone National Park, the first national park in the world. Naive line-and-watercolor illustrations glow with warm, vivid colors. One picture, depicting layers of the earth’s crust, provides a simple view of what is happening below the surface in a landscape dotted with unusual features such as fumaroles and bubbling mud holes. Besides geological elements, the book also introduces mammals living in the park and forest fires, acknowledging that mistakes have been madein management and allowing, Yellowstone still has a lot to teach us. Though written and designed for beginning readers, this short, colorful book would also be useful to share with younger children before a trip to Yellowstone, as most books available on the topic aim at an older audience.
