Handbook of nature-study for teachers and parents
Anna Botsford Comstock
Anna Botsford Comstock believed a child who studies a feather or a frog learns to love the world. Her enormous handbook guides teachers and parents through nature-study, from the animal life of field and pond to the birds overhead. Warm, practical, and endlessly rich, it shaped how generations met the outdoors. For anyone teaching young minds to observe. Open the door to nature.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
