Little Naturalists: Teddy Roosevelt Loved the Outdoors

Kate Coombs • Illustrated by Seth Lucas Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt suffered from severe asthma as a child, but he was determined to become strong. He enjoyed wild adventures, and he especially loved the outdoors. As president, he went camping in Yosemite with John Muir, which fueled his desire to preserve our nation’s most beautiful spaces. In his lifetime, Roosevelt designated national parks and established national monuments, forests, bird and game reserves, along with the US Forest Service. Kate Coombs’s engaging narrative and Seth Lucas’s captivating art teach about this inspiring conservationist and former president, encouraging little naturalists to be active and be adventurous.
