We had purchased this book a year ago for our 4 year old granddaughter and she loved the book. So we purchase another one from Amazon for our other 4 year old granddaughter. It is a very good book!

Excellent learning tool!
I purchased 5 books of this series for my five year old daughter for Christmas, as she wanted a "field guide" like her older sisters when exploring our 45 acres of woods. After reviewing these books before giving them, we decided to use them as part of our science program for our home school. These books have bright and colorful pictures, short accurate explanations of the animal, their ...

Fascinating anecdotes

This would be a great book to use to get adolescents interested in scientific inquiry. It is an engaging read, and ...

Five books in one
Like its predecessor (_Fun with Nature_), this hardback volume is really five "Take-Along Guides" bound together: _Wildflowers, Blooms, and Blossoms_; _Berries, Nuts, and Seeds_; _Birds, Nests, and Eggs_; Seashells, Crabs and Sea Stars_; and _Rocks, Fossils, and Arrowheads_. You often see those individual paperbacks on sale at nature center gift shops. Each page features a single plant, ...
