5.0 out of 5 stars My family really enjoyed this book!, April 9, 1999
By A Customer
My family really enjoyed this book because we learned more about what we see every day here in Florida. Since I am not a Florida native, I often had a hard time helping my young naturalists identify the plants and "creatures" they saw on our outings. This book has really helped! It covers a wide spectrum of topics: from weather patterns to Florida habitats to Florida endangered species. It also covered each (Florida) geographic region separately, and provided some interesting history too. I highly recommend this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent guide to Florida nature & history, May 1, 2008
This is a very helpful and well written guide to introducing Florida nature to young children.

General Topics include:
-Florida's symbols
-Keeping a nature journal
-Florida's special places (everglades, salt marshes etc.)
-Flora and Fauna (plants, birds, insects, reptiles, exotics etc.)
-Florida's skies
-your part in Florida's future (careers, spaceship earth crew etc.)

Within each section you will find interesting facts and useful information (complete with clear illustrations), websites you can visit for more info, projects to do with children pertaining to that subject/section, and review of vocabulary words from that section.

Floridians will appreciate the opportunity to learn more about the nature around us that we often overlook, while Florida homeschoolers will be excited to have an extensive field trip lesson plan right at their fingertips!

This book is a find! I highly recommend it.
