Book Reviews of I Love Dirt!: 52 Activities to Help You and Your Kids Discover the Wonders of Nature
Book Review: if by activities you mean conversational pieces...
Summary: 2 Stars
This book does NOT provide activities. It's a list of conversational pieces one could have with their children about nature -- mostly just questions. I gave it 2 stars, since some of the questions were good ones. However, I was expecting actual activities I could do with my kids. I judged this book by the cover... and was disappointed.
