Join us for an enchanting and educational discussion with bestselling author Kate Messner as we delve into her Over and Under series, best suited for a K-3rd grade audience. 

The beautifully illustrated Over and Under books explore precious ecosystems, landscapes, and the animals that call these places “home,” all over the world. From snowy terrains to the Everglades, to the rainforests and even the dirt beneath our feet, these books make an upbeat jumping-off point for discussions of the importance and wonder of our world’s natural habitats. 

Kids are endlessly curious about the natural world and the wildly varied animals living in it, and the Over and Under books help to nurture that interest by celebrating the hidden marvels and creatures all around us.
