3.0 out of 5 stars Not aimed at naturalists

This review is from: Natural Puerto Rico / Puerto Rico Natural (Paperback)
This book does well what it aims to do: introduce middle and high school students to natural history, using Puerto Rico as a framework. As an experienced naturalist, I found it disappointing. Most is the content is very general rather than specific to Puerto Rico, with the exception of the wonderful photographs and their captions. If you know little about natural history, you may enjoy this book. But if you are looking for depth on the unique Puerto Rican flora and fauna, don't waste your time with this one.
