Purchased on Mighty Ape

The bird and plants chapters are good, however the insect section is rather poor… Good though as a general guide for people who are just getting into nature.

Description

There are many guides to trees, birds and insects but nothing that puts them all together in one handy book that can be put in a backpack and taken into the bush. Including full-colour photographs, it looks at the bush in layers, starting at the forest floor, concentrating on things you can see easily, and moving up to the forest canopy. There is detailed information on each individual tree or plant or insect or bird, with excellent material on how to identify them.

Accolades

Shortlisted for New Zealand Post Children's Book Award: Junior Fiction 2005.
