Reviews

[Layah Wells]

This was a nice cute book. I think my nephew will really like it. There were a few bits of information in here that I, a grown adult, didnt know. Its a great basic beginner guide to exploring the outdoors. Plus its nice to look at. Im using it for watercolor inspiration. I just started using watercolors so im using these images as reference photos for practice.

This book, from the Max collection, is unavailable in the US. I have tried. It's a great nature/biology book. And it has a puffy cover.

Tietokirja/kuvakirja lapsille. Ihan pienille sopiva kirja, jossa enimmäkseen vain kuvia eläimistä, mutta myös pienä tietoiskuja kuten "miten toukasta tulee perhonen".
