A Day in Our Homeschooling Life

Review: Your Guide to Zion and Bryce Canyon

Posted in Reviews

Your Guide to Zion and Bryce Canyon National Parks: A Different Perspective by Mike Oard, Tom Vail, John Hergenrather, Dennis Bokovoy Your Guide to Zion and Bryce Canyon National Parks in the newest book in the True North Series. We had such a wonderful experience using the Grand Canyon Guide from this series. I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this new book. Little did I know that receiving this book would lead to a new vacation… I had, oddly enough, never heard of either Zion or Bryce Canyon National Park.  As I looked through the amazing pictures included…
