Description
Following the bestselling Naturama, Michael Fewer and Melissa Doran return with an activity book that encourages young readers to discover for themselves the magic of nature right on their doorstep.
Season by season, the book is packed with outdoor projects that include making a nest box for birds, adopting a tree, making an insect hotel and moon gazing.
But it is perhaps the field guide sections, which encourage observation, collecting and the creation of their very own nature journal, that will be most loved by children in years to come. The charming My Naturama Nature Journal will provide hours of entertainment for budding naturalists everywhere – whatever the season.
Michael Fewer is an architect, environmentalist and writer. He has published work over the last twenty-five years on subjects varying from architectural history and travel to walking and nature guides. Previous books include Day Tours from Dublin, By Swerve of Shore, Irish Waterside Walks, The Way-Marked Trails of Ireland, Irish Long Distance Walks, all published by Gill Books, and The Doorways of Ireland, (Frances Lincoln). He lives in Waterford.
Melissa Doran grew up in Leitrim and studied architecture and digital media technology before becoming an illustrator. Her favourite medium is digital collage that combines lots of hand drawn elements. She also teaches digital illustration and organises sketching mornings in Dublin.
