P is for Peace Garden: A North Dakota Alphabet (Discover America State By State. Alphabet Series)
by Roxane Salonen Author
(From Amazon): Our alphabet journey takes us next to North Dakota, the home to such wide-eyed wonders as bison, mosasaurs and the Red River. Look to the North Dakota skies for a bald eagle or to the horizon for a wild prairie rose, the state flower. Every letter in the alphabet is another chapter in this land rich with history, people, and nature. But no matter where children look in P is for Peace Garden, they're sure to find the singular treasures-from Knepfla soup to the peace gardens-that make North Dakota what it is.

We live in North Dakota, and this is a good book for teaching the kids about our state. We had the privilege of having this book read to us by the author and she was very knowledgable about the state. She had a good idea of letting each of the kids pick a letter out of order to go to, rather than reading the book page by page in order. I thought it was a neat way to get the kids interacting with the book and reading more.
