Another great Arnosky book about observations made in nature. This book focuses on feet. I like how he gets into a little of the science behind how feet work, and why different animals have different types of feet. Aronsky uses great drescriptor words to describe the feeling of walking in different situations such as on a beach, in a river bed, and on the snow. Arnosky's illustrations help explain to the reader what he is referring to in the text.
I don't think this book really works as a stand-alone book in the classroom. I used the book in my text set to support the idea of experiencing things outdoors. I believe the text in this book conveys some good ideas on how to record what you experience when you are outside.
