Sharing Nature with Children, 20th Anniversary Edition by Joseph Cornell

Sharing Nature with Children - 20th Anniversary Edition by Joseph Cornell

As Joseph Cornell's classic book reached its 20th anniversary, Cornell drew upon a wealth of experience in nature education to significantly revise and expand his book. New nature games - favorites from the field — and Cornell's typically insightful commentary makes the second edition of this special classic even more valuable to nature lovers world-wide. The Sharing Nature movement that Cornell pioneered has now expanded to countries all over the globe.

"This is absolutely the best awareness of nature book I've ever seen." - Whole Earth Review

"A magical tool to awaken children to the delights of nature." - The National Trust, England

"It's just the book we've been looking for." - Boy Scouts of America

"The games and activities are delightful to read, clearly explained, fun to do, and adaptable to the urban or suburban environment" - Girl Scouts of the U.S.A.

"Sharing Nature With Children is not just another book of facts, but is grounded in philosophy as well as information, which shares equal status with attitudes. Love of nature and sensitivity to the natural world are major forces motivating both nature study and conservation, and these attitudes can be developed in an authentic and lasting way by personal experience close at home..." - Southern Maryland Parent Line (June 2004)

Why We Love It

We absolutely love this book (and the "Sharing Nature with Children II" book) because it is packed-full of fun ideas and activities that involve children (and adults) in learning more about nature. This is one of those books that you will keep handy and get years of enjoyment out of! This book helps you to truly become more aware of nature!
