OverviewUnlike anything else available, these four titles - Birds, Butterflies, Reptiles and Amphibians, and Wildflowers - contain black-and-white line drawings that encourage nature lovers to learn about nature as they colour their very own field guide. Each drawing of a specific plant or animal comes with a brief description that educates as it entertains. The new colour stickers can be used as a visual reference when placed alongside the line drawings. Colouring the drawings helps reinforce the colour, image, and shape of each plant or animal, improving one's memory and perception while offering a fun and easy way to learn. The Peterson Field Guide[registered] Color-In Books are written and illustrated by various expert naturalists, including Roger Tory Peterson, Robert Michael Pyle, and Robert Stebbins. This series is sponsored by the National Wildlife Federation and the Roger Tory Peterson Institute.
