We love our new book on the city's public parks, We Heart L.A. Parks, so much—and we aren’t the only ones:
"Part travel guide, part collector’s item, and entirely fun..." —Boulevard Sentinel
"[They] celebrate city parks in a very cool way. A uniquely fun and informative guide to the city's parks. I really enjoyed this book...as did my 5-year-old!" —The Hidden History of Los Angeles
"Celebrate L.A. Parks! Check out this awesome coloring and activity book. Fun for all ages and provides info for public transit routes!" —Griffith Park News
We can’t thank the many talented contributors—more than 50 in all, ages 8 to 87—enough for sharing their artwork and stories. The book brings to life the wealth of wonders that are our local parks! Download our cover illustration of Everett Triangle Park in Echo Park by Highland Park artist Jennifer Cuellar to color and share it with friends. Or join us this summer for our 52-park challenge: can you visit all the parks included in the book this year? We are doing our best to color in the map on the opening pages of the book. Find us this spring and summer seeking the shady spots in these glorious places.
Order We Heart L.A. Parks from our online store or it's available locally at Skylight Books (Los Feliz), The Library Store (Downtown), Once Upon a Time Bookstore (Montrose), and Leanna Lin's Wonderland (Eagle Rock). A percentage of profits from the book will be donated to the Los Angeles Neighborhood Land Trust, whose mission is to contribute to the equity and well-being of our neighborhoods through the development of parks, gardens, and community-driven organizing.
