Originally published in 2000 with endorsements from E.O. Wilson and Jane Goodall, Clare Walker Leslie's Keeping a Nature Journal was at the forefront of the nature observation and journaling movement. Leslie's approach has long been acclaimed for its easy-to-understand style of teaching people to see, witness, and appreciate the wonders of nature. Her classic guide is still used by individuals, groups, and educators ranging from elementary school teachers to college-level instructors.
The third edition features more of Leslie's step-by-step drawing techniques, a new selection of pages from her own journals (which she's kept for 40 years), and an expanded range of prompts for observing particular aspects of the natural world in any location. With an emphasis on learning to see and observe, Leslie shows how drawing nature doesn't require special skills, artistic ability, or even nature knowledge. It is a tool that everyone can use to record observations and experience the benefits of a stronger connection to the natural world.
