Weekend in the woods read number two!

[Keekee Smith · Rating 5 out of 5]

I found this guide to be quite educational and was able to correctly identify two different tracks.

[William Writer · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was concise, exactly what I needed to further review the lifestyles of the countless mammal characters of The 10,000 Lakes Tales.

I base animal actions on what I assume they do in the forest/woods and when I was loaned this book by a great friend of mine, I fell in love!

I love to be right, and when I checked out the habitat and natural characteristics of each animal character, this book made me feel like I must have been living in the forest when I wrote The 10,000 Lakes Tales.

I loved this book too! This book and Critters of MN go hannd in hand for the nature lover, the animal lover, and explorer of woodlands, forests, and State Parks.
