The Ys Take a Walk

Publishing August 25th, 2026 | Hardcover and Paperback | 32 pages

Protectors of nature, the Ys will always be, thanks to walks with our people, and on that, we agree.

The Y family returns in their literary journey to revisit their roots, where a shared love for nature and exploration originated. As the Ys reminisce on long walks they’ve taken with beloved family members, they are reminded of the beauty of nature and all it has taught them.  

The Ys Take A Walk, book four in the Y series, focuses on the calming feeling a simple walk and time spent in the great outdoors can bring, encouraging readers to always appreciate the world around them. Join the Ys (and a few guest characters) in a story that recounts their favorite memories in nature with the people who helped spark their joy for all things big and small. On this nature walk with the Ys, readers will learn that with fresh air in your lungs and the company of loved ones at your side, life’s most magical moments make the strongest handprints on our hearts.
