Customer Reviews

A beautifully illustrated peek into Wisconsin history and culture

"B is for Badger" is a wonderful book for learning about Wisconsin's traditions, history and culture. I'm a fan of this book series, but a few of the books I've purchased are quite detailed for young children. This book is entertaining and informative, though each page is short and sweet enough for the younger ears, but puts forth something for both adults and children to learn about. The illustrations are beautiful, and aptly capture the people, places, traditions and unique treasures found in Wisconsin.

Great Book

This book is one of a kind. Great illustrations and well written! A must have for children in WI!

GREAT BOOK.

This is a beautifully done book. It is good for little children and their older siblings (and parents) as it is written on two levels. The illustrations are wonderful.
