One Day in the Woods

I have to say, I love this author's books. I have not read one I did not like thus far. The kids really enjoy them. We just began her Eco series and found the books interesting for me and for my children. They learned a lot too!

This series was something I read when I was young. I loved them and recommended them for younger kids. They will like the whole series!! Also try the Magic Treehouse and the Baily School kids as well They're older but GOOD!

These are great outdoor adventure books. I would recommend this book to a friend!👍👍👍

Happy teacher

This book is a good introduction to the woods for children.

We have Quite a few of the one day books, It proves to be interesting book to read, Thank you.

Useful for elementary school.

I am perplexed as to why Jean Craighead George and her books are not recommended more by American schools, both public and private. I regularly see references to authors like E. B. White, Christopher Paul Curtis and Gary Paulsen -- and yes they are all fine authors -- but Jean Craighead George is so rarely mentioned that until recently I thought her only note-worthy book was Julie of the Wolves. Boy was I wrong! Not only was she far more prolific in her publication of youth novels than any of these authors, I have yet to encounter a book of hers I wouldn't recommend! Her writing is an American treasure and a heritage which deserves to be passed down to each forthcoming generation.We are homeschooling for the first time ever this year -- 5th and 7th grade -- and even though the target audience for this book is 4th grade, it still had a wealth of information to teach each of us as we were studying deciduous forest biomes/ecosystems. I especially love the way she urges readers to be awed by nature and its amazing attributes. White-tailed deer seem to disappear the moment they put their white tails down, since the rest of their bodies blend in seamlessly with the background in a stunning feat of camouflage; baby ducklings fall 40 feet from their nest but land unharmed because of the design of their bodies, etc.An awesome and highly recommended read for nature lovers of all ages.

An entertaining and educational book. A few errors cost it a star (e.g., it is Rufous-sided Towhee not Chestnut-sided Towhee).
