Wild Pony Preview

This book takes you to Assateague and shows you how the ponies live during the year. Lovely photographs.

Great photographs and information

Our school hosted a presentation by Mr. Points. His visit made the books come to life. He enjoys talking with children and his information is so interesting that he easily keeps their attention. The books help students better understand how important it is to preserve our vital natural resources. I've given several of his books as gifts and the receiver is always delighted.
