Filled with interesting maps, sketches, and engaging field notes, these are written from the perspective of a naturalist who is in the field. Though the naturalist being portrayed is fictional, the facts presented in the journal/field guide are very real. There are both illustrations and photographs. Each of the 8 animals presented is accompanied by a set of 3-D puzzle pieces that are enclosed in pouches throughout the book. A removable diorama is inserted into the back of the book for your young naturalist to assemble and display with the animals. The books have a hard cover with sturdy, glossy pages, and the beautiful covers are embossed creating an "old leather" look and feel. Ages 8 and up. 36 pages, 8¾"x10¾"
