After reading the reviews on Amazon I too was leary of purchasing the book. Instead I went to google books and downloaded the free ebook version (https://play.google.com/store/books/details/Anna_Botsford_Comstock_Handbook_of_Nature_study_fo?id=OHoeAAAAMAAJ#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDUwMSwiYm9vay1PSG9lQUFBQU1BQUoiXQ..). I’m reading it on my iPad using the Google Play app but you can also read it in your browser on the computer. My son is only 3 so we’re mainly at the “ooh look, a worm” stage but I can’t wait to start doing more involved nature studies.

I was wondering which edition of this book to purchase. Some of the reviewers at amazon.com mention that at least one of the editions has terrible pictures, but they do not specify which edition(s). Other reviewers rave about the “beautiful pictures”, but also do not specify which edition. My local bookstores don’t even carry a copy of this at all, so I am not able to look at a hard copy. Suggestions?

I know I had no idea where to begin when I decided to take on nature studies. I thought it was just about taking a walk and drawing a picture..lol. This is a great post to make the most out of nature outings and journals! I love the book and recommend it all the time. .-= Richele´s last blog ..Book Review: GREEN =-.
