Everything You Need in a Nature Book

This is by far the best nature project book I have seen. Visually, it is very appealing--beautifully organized, with full color photos. The lessons are clearly presented, and differences between geographic regions are noted, making this book relevant for any part of the country. It is a very hands-on approach to learning about nature, which is so often absent these days. While it is geared toward activities for younger children, I found it to be a very inspiring book--made me want to walk out the door and start exploring NOW.

Great For Homeschoolers

This is the best hands on science book I have seen yet. Great for kids to go out on their own or for parents to do with their kids as family outings and such. Has field trip ideas for each topic. Very highly recommended.
