Budget gift: Children’s books about Lake Tahoe

Publisher’s note: Lake Tahoe News is looking for gift ideas that are less than $20. Find out how to make a suggestion.

Sing-along stories make a great gift for young children on your gift list. “In The Meadow (Don’t Feed Our Bears)” and “On the Trail” are two Tahoe stories that use rhythm, rhyme, and repetition to teach nature appreciation and environmental awareness. Each book, illustrated in full color, comes with a sing-along CD.

Book/CD sets are $15 each.

Contact local author, Krissi Russell at (530) 307.1357 or go online. Both books are also available at Toy Maniacs, Barton Gift Shop, Explore Tahoe, Driftwood Cafe, Made in Tahoe and Bona Fide Books.
