    I had read reviews, so I knew in advance about the black and white photos. I was not concerned with those. I am a homeschooling mother looking to add more nature into our studies and this book, along with a nature program found online had been the perfect addition. We are loving going through the book and looking for 'answers' to our nature questions. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to add more nature to their day/week.

    This book is actually free online but who wants to copy a thousand papers. This is an awesome book to use to introduce nature to your child in gods world. I am using it in the charlotte mason approach or style.

    We have just begun nature studies with our children & this book is our new favorite reference(even with several field guides on our shelves). It begins with how to conduct a nature study, goes on to give information on many different kinds of animals, insects, plants, rocks, soil, etc., as well as provides excellent questions that have made our studies more exciting because they've caused us to notice things we would'nt have without them. It is our new found treasure!

    We have had this book on our shelf now for about 6 years and still pull it off all the time when we have a "nature question". Last year when we had a robin nest on our front porch, we found far more information about the friendly robin than any other source...how many eggs will she lay, how long to incubate, how many worms does a baby bird eat, were all questions we found answers for. This book is written beautifully and lovingly. It is fine literature in itself. It contains student lessons which the mother/teacher can give orally or written to her students which help the student observe a speciman very intricately. You will also find beautiful poetry about your favorite things... caterpillars and crickets and more.The only thing this book lacks are colored pictures. There are many pictures included, but they are black and white. Don't let this hinder you from buying this book though. The wealth of information far outweighs the simple pictures.For those who love nature and for those who are wondering about nature, this is a "must have".

    Have had this on my wish list for a long time. Living on wooded property gives us many opportunities to explore and discover new creatures we've never seen or birds stopping by for the first time. This is a wonderful addition as the children learn and draw as they write in their nature journals.
