An Amazing Nature Book!

My review of East Coast Nature by Jeffrey C. Domm and published by Formac:

A 5/5 star book! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

East Coast Nature is a compact guide to the natural world around us in Atlantic Canada. It details the many animals, bugs, flowers, mushrooms, and trees of the three Atlantic provinces (Nova Scotia, PEI and New Brunswick). It uses a mix of illustrations, symbols and short blurbs to help you identify species around you!

I absolutely loved this little book. The illustrations in it were extremely well done, and that accompanied by the many symbols used and the quick notes on the species make this book perfect for those looking to identify the living things around them. The colours used in this book were also very beautiful, and catch the eye quite easily!

The book itself is great because it’s quite small, yet it does any amazing job of detailing so many different species around the Maritime provinces that it makes the perfect beginners guide. This would be an amazing book to take on a hike through the wilderness in Nova Scotia and explore the amazing nature around you. I’ve taken this book birdwatching with me and it is makes it much easier to identify the birds around me, as it’s quick and easy to scan before the bird flies away! The compactness and conciseness of this book was a big factor in why I gave it 5 stars!

I recommend this book to anyone who’s just looking for a start in identifying nature around them, or seasoned spotters who are just looking for a quick guide! The details in this book are exquisite, yet an easy read because it’s all in quick and short blurbs!

I recommend this book.
