The Wild Out Your Window

I absolutely love this collection of short yet riveting essays about the flora and fauna of New Hampshire and the region. I really felt like it was "out my window"! I learned fascinating tidbits about how truly extraordinary creatures and plants exist and coexist. The essays are quick but alluring, and they truly make me want to go discover more! As a teacher, I will use this collection to help students appreciate the natural surroundings they so often take for granted.

A light very informative series of short, well written observations of wild life just outside any New England window. Sy is an astute observer who obviously is well read on the subject.

I loved reading about local wildlife and local people. And I learned many interesting facts about animals.

What a great collection of essays on all things nature. Sy Montgomery's engaging style of writing captures my heart. After reading this book from the library, I knew I needed to purchase my own copy to read again and again. Big recommendation for anyone who appreciates the wild out their own windows or wants to discover it for the first time.

This is an interesting and engaging way to enjoy nature. I've been reading the book to my 8yo daughter, then the next day we'll try to find correlates in our local environs (the book is from the Massachussets area, I live in Alabama). Very entertaining.

Bite-sized informative glimpses of the natural world. Perfect for bedtime reading. This is my third book by Sy Montgomery, who is always engaging.

Not what i expected . Focus solely on New England. The constant reference to scientists names and their place of work distracted from the content.

I loved reading this book because it made me more aware of what is going on around me.
