As they proceed with their hike through the remaining pages there are beautiful nature scenes. The illustrations are bright, realistic, and perfectly suited for young children. It is easy to identify Leo and his fathers feelings from the facial expressions that are illustrated throughout their hike. These feelings include; excitement, happiness, awe, pleasure, curiosity, and tiredness. Throughout this eighteen page board book the author has written descriptive sentences to describe the things Leo and his father see, touch, hear, and taste. This story could be beneficial for children up to four- years- old.
