Summary: Lovely photographs. One error though!
Review: Some of the loveliest photographs I have ever seen in a children's book. Truly beautiful...however, I noted one big error. The number twelve is represented by what the author states are Salal berries and shows a photograph of Dull Oregon Grape berries..a totally different plant. Perhaps this was changed in a later printing? I certainly hope so, if not, it should be. Both berries are edible, with the Dull Oregon Grape (Mahonia Nervosa) being far more tasty. Over all this is a wonderful book for all ages. Perhaps checking with a good fieldbook on plants might be of help next time. Might I suggest Pojar/Mackinnon's Plants of the Pacific Northwest Coast? :)

Summary: Excellent text and photos, unfortunately some are cropped.
Review: This is a beautifully written and illustrated book for young children. Unfortunately, some of the photos were cropped during production and so there are no longer the correct number of objects in some of the photographs. This greatly diminishes the value of the book. Hopefully they will reprint the book
