Grandma and Grandpa's Traveling House in Idaho

Grandma and Grandpa's Traveling House in Idaho is a children's picture book for ages 4-8 that introduces young readers to the history, landscapes, and stories of the Gem State through warm, family-centered storytelling.

In this Idaho edition, children explore how the search for gold helped shape early communities and learn about some of the state's most remarkable natural features. Through postcards and conversations with their grandparents, young readers discover Hell's Canyon, one of the deepest river canyons in North America, and Craters of the Moon, a landscape formed by ancient volcanic activity. The story also includes lighter moments, such as a visit to the world's largest potato and a playful introduction to Idaho's legendary jack-a-lope, blending fact and folklore in an age-appropriate way.

Written in a gentle, non-political tone, this full-color book emphasizes learning, shared storytelling, and intergenerational connection. It is part of a growing state-by-state series designed for library collections and classroom read-alouds.
