Redwood National Park was established on October 2, 1968 along the coast of Northern California. Together with California’s Del Norte Coast, Jedediah Smith and Prairie Creek Redwood State Parks, The Redwood National and State Parks protect 45% of all remaining Coastal Redwood trees.
Max wanted to make this podcast to inform other kids about redwoods and how "cool they can be if they survive". It came up as an option after we read Jason Chin's book (click on the image below) and I asked him a few questions about what he had learned. Our conversation doesn't even cover half the book's rich content, so I encourage you to read it for yourself and share it with your family.
