Reviews

[Dennis Schvejda]

Originally published as a periodical from the 60's - 80's this book is a "best of" compilation highlighting Nature through the seasons. Pen & ink drawings illustrate facts and crafts, and books for additional study. If you enjoy Nature, or would like to introduce your (grand) children to Nature, this book is a must have.
