Description
Lace up your hiking boots and trek the 72-kilometre West Coast Trail. Or hop on a helicopter and soar over the spectacular slopes of Garibaldi Provincial Park. British Columbia highlights some of the province's most isolated and exciting locations. Photographers have captured the thrill of whitewater rafting down the Thompson River and the serenity of kayaking through the Queen Charlotte Islands. From scenic Victoria to the barren expanse of Chilcotin cattle ranches, this is a stunning look at the province's diverse landscapes. About the Canada series: As expansive as Canada itself, this outstanding series captures outstanding views of panoramic landscapes, brilliant city skylines, and picturesque communities. Each volume focuses on a city or province and features 96 pages and 70 stunning images by internationally renowned photographers, plus descriptive captions.
About the author
Tanya Lloyd Kyi
grew up in Creston, B.C. She began her writing career as a high school poet, producing pages and pages of work that her mother loved and her best friend religiously archived (possibly for a future blackmailing scheme). The original edition of Canadian Girls Who Rocked the World was Tanya's first book for young readers. She has since published nine other titles, including Canadian Boys Who Rocked The World, which was short-listed for the Silver Birch Award by the Ontario Library Association. Tanya now lives in Vancouver, B.C.
