Customer Reviews

Great book for kids.

An important subject in an easy to read book that combines art and learning. Good book. Who said learning can't be fun?

Lively, fun, interesting

For a youngster this is the perfect introduction to an ecosystem found almost everywhere in the country. (Actually, I'm no youngster and I found the level was just right for me too.) The illustrations are a delight--and accurate; the text quirky with sound science and bits of fun entertaining trivia. If you're one of the few who doesn't have a wetland nearby, then you'll find some other books in this series that might cover your area (Prairies, Mountains, Deserts too)
