NEW EDITION! The 2025 edition of this book is updated with all new illustrations by Robert Rath (the original 2004 book was illustrated by Elijah Brady Clark).
This edition of Who Pooped in the Park? follows Michael and Emily on a trip to California’s Yosemite National Park. Michael tries to deal with his fear of bears as Mom and Dad teach him and his sister about the wildlife in the park—without ever getting close enough to be scared.
In their “close encounters of the poopy kind,” the family learns about a variety of animals, and readers will become familiar with their tracks and the droppings they leave behind (scats). This Yosemite edition features:
- Black Bears
- Coyotes
- Mountain Lions
- Bobcats
- Mule Deer
- Rabbits
- Ringtails
- Ground Squirrels
- Spotted Bats
- Great Grey Owls
- and a special appearance by a ranger’s horse
