Discover the science of the natural world - on your doorstep!

Seashores are all around us, whether they are in the form of relaxing sandy beaches or towering cliffs. But, did you know, the seashores near you are brimming with life? This book uncovers the science and wonders of life on the shore.

The Great Outdoors aims to get kids looking at nature on their doorstep. Instead of larger biomes, the series looks at places children are most likely to have access to, such as the local park, their back garden, or a beach. It encourages them to observe the wildlife and the ecosystems at work within these places, while taking in broader concepts. Each volume contains a minimum of 6 activities, which vary from observation to crafts, suitable for ages 7+.
