Outside: A Guide to Discovering Nature by Ines Teixeira Do Rosario, Maria Ana Peixe Dias

4.0

This is another of my favorite books this year. The subtitle is "With more than 100 plants and animals, plus an introduction to weather, geology, and the night sky." What better way to help young readers learn to appreciate the earth than with hand-on activities they can do no matter where they live. The illustrations are rather minimal, with few colors but they are still spot on. This is a great resource book as well as a great activity book and would be ideal for introducing kids to the natural sciences. I can remember my Kiddo exploring nature in the park and at the beach and a book like this is just what she needed but didn't have. It's a hefty volume but its packed full of good stuff.
