Review
A very accessible guide to the wonders of nature on our doorsteps, from Lichens, reptiles, insects and butterflies to birds and their songs and animals and their pawprints. If your memories of school biology classes are a little hazy, this handy, illustrated book will guide you through naming trees, spotting edible berries, even understanding the seasons, tides and the phases of the moon. --Choice Magazine, October 2009
