Eaton is celebrating his newest picture book, “Looking For Peppermint: Or Life in the Forest.” In the book, a young girl shares stories and facts about the woods near her home while catching up with her mischievous dog, Peppermint. Detailed illustrations bring wild critters to life and keep the reader guessing what’s next. Any young reader with an interest in science and the natural world will want to hike out into the forest with Peppermint and her humans.

Eaton is a critically acclaimed author and illustrator of dozens of outdoor adventure-based picture books and comics for young readers. All of his books are informed by a life led outdoors in the mountains and on the water. He is passionate about sharing his love for the natural world with young people and empowers them to get outside; make and do with their own hands; to think and act with calm and collected minds; and to maintain perspective and humor. He skis, paddles and writes in the Adirondack Mountains.
