Falcon Guide by Jamie Siebrase 

Colorado has a lot to offer--from soaring mountains to vast alpine forests and sage covered desert--so it's no surprise that it's one of the top outdoor tourist destinations in the country. And, with families spearheading the need to get outdoors with their little ones (just say no to excessive screen time ), there are places a-plenty for exploring with littles of all ages. Whether you live there or are simply traveling through, Hiking with Kids Colorado offers up new and exciting adventures for parents and their elementary school-age kids alike. Organized around location, for ease of knocking out all of those "bucket list" places, the book features 52 easily accessible day hike locations, with each hike featuring a color photo and a map. As is standard with FalconGuides, all the basic information--from trailhead GPS to best times to go to fees and contacts--will be there, along with trail descriptions geared directly for the kids. The book's handy "Best Hikes For" chart in the beginning will identify the best hikes for water features, historic geographic features, views, cool flora/fauna, and more. Hiking with Kids Colorado will keep its young participants engaged with tips on cool scavenger hunts; how to identify various animals, bird calls, and more; fun facts about the history of the land; and more.

Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds and Shape Our Futures

Merlin Sheldrake

When we think of fungi, we likely  think of mushrooms. But mushrooms are only fruiting bodies, analogous to apples on an underground tree. most fungi live out of sight and are easy to miss yet make up a massively diverse kingdom of organisms that support and sustain nearly all living systems. The more we learn about fungi, the less makes sense without them. 

Merlin Sheldrake's exploration of this astonishing kingdom of life reveals how fungi-and our relationships with them- are changing our understanding of how the world works. Bringing to light science's latest discoveries, he points us toward the fundamental questions that fungi provoke about the nature of life, intelligence, and identity.
