Author and educator Neil Rosen is passionate about the transformative power of books on children and their families. He writes books that unite families and empower parents, caregivers, and children to impact their community positively. Neil's latest project, Can You Read Nature? encourages families to spend more intentional time outdoors to nurture future generations of environmental stewards.
Can You Read Nature? is designed for the entire family. From curious 5-year-olds on their first hike to grandparents rediscovering the natural world, our books enhance every natural experience. Read before you go, see ten times more when you are there.
Museum-quality illustrations, by professional artists from around the globe, make every page worth lingering over, the young attracted by the bright colors, the experienced drawn to the incredible detail in the artwork.
Books in the Junior Adventurer series are crafted for early readers and young explorers, with reading and science levels perfect for ages 5–10 and clearly marked on the cover. All other guides are written for families, hiking buddies, and nature lovers of any age, layered so that children grow into them and adults never outgrow them.

Meet the Artist:
Ruby Stathers
Ruby Stathers is mainly a self-taught artist inspired by nature. Growing up, when she wasn't playing in the backyard, she was sketching and coloring. Later on, she picked up some practice with art through grade school classes, and after one college intro-to-painting course, started creating her own acrylic paintings on canvas.
Ruby's style has evolved from landscapes and animals, to surrealism, to now a reverence for visionary art. Her meditative visions are aligned with life events, which she learns from in the process, and shares in stories for each piece. A theme of balance between Earth and Spirit defines her latest work.
As the styles changed, so did her life path. Ohio is Ruby's home state, though she has traveled extensively across the U.S. from seasonal work in national park gift shops to outdoor conservation, and now to entrepreneurship as an artist, painting teacher, and life coach - guiding others to remove creative blocks and hold inner peace.
Her visit to Glacier National Park was a top favorite, as she spent a few days away from forest inventorying on a reservation nearby in Montana. Besides the breathtaking views, comfortably wearing t-shirts while walking in the snow was especially memorable. Ruby is deeply passionate about environmental stewardship, so it was a no-brainer to apply to join this mission, particularly for the kids who are missing out by staying in!
