Product Details
Overview
Keep this family-friendly resource handy to answer your questions about nature and wildlife throughout the northeastern United States.
When it comes to the great outdoors, it’s only natural to be curious. Perhaps you’ll find some animal tracks while camping, or maybe a child will ask, “How do birds fly?” during a hike. You might not have a naturalist with you, but Nature Smart: Northeast is the next best thing! Written by award-winning author, naturalist, and wildlife photographer Stan Tekiela, the book is fun, accessible, and filled with information for readers of all ages.
Topics are divided into chapters, beginning with “Hike Smart.” That’s followed by entries on ecosystems—from rocky coastlines and lush woodlands to tranquil wetlands. Stan also introduces a variety of wildlife, including birds, bugs, mammals, reptiles, and amphibians, along with several plants and mushrooms. Every chapter begins with a simple overview and flows into easy-to-understand Q&As, combining engaging storytelling with scientific insights that reveal surprising facts.
Nature Smart: Northeast is more than a nature guide. It turns ordinary moments into learning experiences, and it’s a step toward environmental stewardship. It helps individuals, families, and classrooms connect with the outdoors and cultivate a lasting appreciation for the natural world. Created for the states of Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont, as well as Washington, DC, this is your guide to seeing nature with fresh eyes.
Inside You’ll Find:
- Insightful explanations of coastal, wetland, and forest habitats
- Tips for bird-watching, wildlife tracking, and hiking
- Beautiful photographs for identifying animals, plants, and mushrooms
