A nature walk can be a great adventure for both adults and children because wildlife is everywhere – if you know where to look for it. This book shows which animals and plants live in different habitats during the year, and how to recognise them. The teeming life of meadows, woodlands, mountains and seashore is captured in detailed, full-colour illustrations. A map locates the various habitats and there are projects to be enjoyed by everyone while on walks or at home throughout the seasons.
