This engaging nature guide, filled with full-color illustrations and fun facts about the natural wonders of the Pacific Northwest, encourages kids to discover and explore nature in their own backyards and beyond. Organized by habitat--forest, beaches, fresh water, and backyards/urban parks--this book will teach kids about some of the most intriguing flora, fauna, and natural phenomena of the region, while also teaching ecological lessons. Baby raccoons are smaller than a bar of soap! Anemones are green because of photosynthetic algae--so anemones that live in the shade are white! Carpenter ants feed each other by vomiting in each other's mouths! This is the outdoor nature guide for curious kids in the Pacific Northwest. Author - Short: Cohen, Fiona Pages (actual): 96
