Take a closer look at your local lake, pond or woodland pool. Don't mind the mud--see it from a kid's eye view. You will find salamanders, frogs, minnows, cattails, and hundreds of other water-loving plants and animals. Right near your home is one of the most exciting, sensory-rich environments in the world! The wetlands in and around ponds and lakes are natural treasures waiting for young people to explore, discover, and learn. Here is the journal and scrapbook of a young Planet Scout who kept notes for a year, shared the results with his troop, and eagerly took on a pond cleanup project. He didn't mind the mud because his mind was captivated by the daily drama of turtles, crayfish, dragonflies and water skimmers.Kristin Joy Pratt-Serafini is the author of 'Salamander Rain: A Lake & Pond Journal (Sharing Nature With Children Book)' with ISBN 9781584690184 and ISBN 1584690186.
