First published in the UK, this foraging guide for families features commonsense advice and clearly drawn illustrations of dandelions, lamb's quarters, morels, plantain, blackberries, and many other plants also found in the Pacific Northwest. As a bonus, a sidebar for each plant lists names used for that plant in various places around the world. (Miller Library Staff)
"Foraging with Kids is an engaging, practical book for adults and children to work through together to build knowledge and understanding of the natural world through exploration and play. The projects are based around 52 easy-to-identify plants found worldwide, each one illustrated with a beautiful hand drawing for easy identification that is perfect for colouring in at home. Children and adults will be amazed by the diverse uses for their finds; from making soap from conkers to stopping minor cuts from bleeding with hedge woundwort. This is the ideal companion for anyone wanting to unlock nature's larder and teach their children about the glorious abundance of the world around them."--Back cover.
