[Eeve Sopková · Rating 4 out of 5]

Krásna knižka v krásnom vydaní, to musím spomenúť. Je rozdelená na tri časti, Stromy, rastliny a vtáky. Je tu množstvo informácií o životnom prostredí týchto troch "hlavných hrdinov", o ich rozmnožovaní, identifikácii, ako im pomôcť, rôzne rady, tipy, triky, musím však podotknúť, že text je vedený skôr pre mladších čitateľov - povedala by som tak do 15 rokov, možno aj trocha menej. Všetko to je doprevádzané peknými ilustráciami, a na konci každej kapitoly sa nachádza kľúč pre určovanie stromov, rastlín a vtákov, musím podotknúť, že obsahuje len základné a stručné informácie o niektorých základných druhoch. To ale nič nemení na tom, že je to naozaj veľmi podarená knižka plná rôznych informácií.
