Jacket Description/Back:

Nature Detectives Wanted!
Step outside and look around! You'll notice many curious things you never knew were happening, no matter where you live. Full of fun ideas for what to look for and do every month of the year and with plenty of room to record what you find, The Nature Connection is your guide to exploring and discovering the wonders of the natural world all around you.

 

In a time when most kids know more about the Amazon rain forest than their own backyards, Clare Walker Leslie's terrific new book will open a whole new world. -- Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods

 

What better way to go through the year than looking at and wondering about nature with your kids! A great activity book for budding naturalists. -- Elizabeth Kolbert, author, Field Notes from a Catastrophe

 

If I could choose one person to be my child's Rachel Carson-esque grandmother, then I'd choose Clare Walker Leslie. But if Clare wasn't available in person, then I'd want my grandchildren to have this book. -- David Sobel, Director, Teacher Certification, Antioch University
