The first in a series of visually exciting children’s publications focusing exclusively on works produced by artists from Greece. This publication is focused on works that depict or think about the animals that co-exist within a mediterranean landscape. The publication includes playful and thought provoking texts by author and educationalist Alkistis Halikia, which raise questions on ways of thinking with and about other animal species, how we live with them and how to imagine with them.

At the Park won the National award for best educational publication for 2010.
