Even though the book came without a dust jacket, which is to be expected, I really enjoy this book. The illustrations are beautiful and it has an old used feeling that I love. I had this book as a kid and misplaced it through the years. So happy to have another copy. Thank you Thrift Books

    A great resource on wildlife

    A favorite from my childhood, info on lots of animals, plants and fungi, with excellent artwork. I’m not sure if the info is completely up to date as the book is from the 80s, but for the casual user I’m sure it’s as accurate as you’d need. Using it to take with on my trips to national parks. Noted a zone of wolverines in Southern California. This is an old book. Looked up current info. There is ONE WOLVERINE LEFT in So Cal. So sad. But I learned about it because of this book.

    Pretty comprehensive

    Overall, I am fairly pleased with this book, though honestly, the sketches of animals are a bit obsolete. With the ubiquitous phone cameras, I'd have expected real photos. I have owned better manuamanuals, but I give this a fair rating.

    If you enjoy exploring nature, this is a great book for the family!

    I borrowed this book from a neighbor. Well, JUST had to get one of my own! I live in Maine, USA. Our family loves exploring outside. They love finding something botanical, and watching birds. This book is easy to use, full of general knowledge, and it is fun looking up items to identify. Even though it is illustrated with sketch drawings, they are very detailed! Some pages at the begining with detailed desriptions of habitats and forests. Separated sections for mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians, fish, invertabrates, trees and shrubs, wildflowers, non flowering plants, and mushrooms. No, it probably doesn't have every single little thing in these areas, it is a well informative with the most popular items, and is a great start in identifying. It has common, biological, and ...

    Review of RD North American Wildlife

    This book is NOT an in-depth study of all NA wild life. It lists the most common flowers, weeds, birds, anyway you get the picture. I use it for a quick guide or reference manual. The pictures are very good at depicting the plant or animal in question, and the book, sparks an interest in all the additional material. I found that I was going to the book not for reference but for light reading and pure interest. Readers Digest North American Wildlife is fun for young and old. This book is a replacement for my copy (that I gave away) thinking I could order a new one; at the time of this entry it is no longer in print. Member cbliv September 30 2009 I have been using this book more often recently as I research more of the plant varieties in our present location, to see if any of the more ...

    Great nature study handbook! Excellent resource.

    This is a great handbook to assist with nature study of plants, animals, birds, mushrooms, etc. in North America. Quick descriptions and a photo help to discern between different plants - which is difficult for me. This will be great to help us identify flowers, green plants and trees when we do nature study in homeschool. The only thing I would probably have preferred is if the pictures were real photos rather than drawings. Even so - the drawings are well done & easy to distinguish different features of the plants. Additionally, alternate names of the plants are provided as well as several other characteristics.
