Walk in the Woods by Emily Laber-Warren

Take a good look around!

Discover towering trees, fragrant flowers, and the fascinating animals that live in the woods. Packed with pictures, the portable guide inside will help you identify and understand some of the most incredible yet common things you'll find on a walk through the woods.

Go out and explore.

Now that you've learned to look at the woods in a whole new way, bring your mesh bag along to gather some forest treasures such as colorful leaves, pine cones, and seed pods. Use the enclosed magnifying jar to get a closer, more detailed look at the things you spot—from tree bark to tiny insects. Save your favorite finds in this beautiful treasure box. Be sure to label everything you gather, and write down where and when you found each item.

Have a great adventure!
