About it

What you get

Of the 235 hunts, 81 are about birds, 33 about flowers and 30 about the garden, and the rest are about trees, the sky, butterflies and the market. Each week's page has a bird or flower from the state's list drawn on it and a box to draw the best find, and 4 season pages carry an explorer badge to color. The cover shows the American Goldfinch, Iowa's state bird, and the Wild Prairie Rose, its state flower. Eight activity pages, from a nature map to four journal pages, and a Nature Explorer certificate round out the year. It is a full-color paperback, 8.5 by 11 inches, printed to order. The illustrations were made with AI tools, and each was checked against its species' field or botanical marks before printing.
