I love all of Edwin Tunis' books. I'm most familiar with his historical stuff---and this book, like the others, is filled with wonderful facts. It's a gentle book--with FABUL0US illustrations (which, as an artist myself, I can tell were done from first-hand observation.) If you're into looking at nature (especially "everyday" nature), and wanting to know more, this would be a great book for you!
