Description
Book SynopsisHike a trail, climb a tree! Smell the flowers, watch the birds! Explore the world! Nature is full of adventures, but sometimes it’s easy to forget things you felt or saw. What did those animal tracks look like? How did you feel when you gazed at the starry sky on a calm, clear night? My Nature Book is the perfect place for a child to keep track of all of his or her memories. It’s a place to draw and write about your experiences with nature, so you’ll remember the sound of the squirrel you heard chattering, the color of the bird that landed on your lunch sack, or the way the meadow grasses waved goodbye. My Nature Book is also full of projects and ideas, such as how to make water windows and luminarias, and even how to make yummy peanut butter cookies or banana bread or muffins to take along on hiking trips. There are also lined pages for writing, blank pages for drawing, and numerous activity pages.
Trade ReviewA carefully crafted, beautifully produced journal for actively engaging children in the natural world. Children only need a nudge to notice and question things adults have come to take for granted, and this little activity-filled book hits just the right buttons: curiosity, finely tuned observation, and hands-on experience. Put the book in their hands, and take them outside! -- Paul Larson, Naturalist; proprietor of the bookstore A Sense of Place
