Ida Visits the Capitol
Presented by First Lady Lori Otter
“Ida Jones recalls the days when pilots barnstormed and wing-walked, thrilling crowds. Some of the most daring were young women. Ida, our heroine, flies backward in time on a journey of historical discovery. She carries a secret message written in an ancient language. Children who visit the Idaho capitol can help Ida decode the message as they learn about some remarkable people and places in our amazing state.”

P is for Potato
by Dr. Stan Steiner, Joy Steiner and Jocelyn Slack
Continuing the acclaimed “Discover America State by State” series is “P is for Potato: An Idaho Alphabet.” This title explores the lush land and rich history of a state too often overlooked. Kids of all ages will love the A to Z rhymes boasting about all the treasures found within Idaho’s borders- from the Appaloosa steed to the zinc mines to Mount Borah, to, you knew we couldn’t forget it, the potato. But after a few pages readers will also allow peregrine, Union Pacific, Quinceanera, Nez Perce, and other Idaho icons to share in the spotlight.
