The forest is a magical and mysterious place, both by day and by night. Day & Night in the Forest shows us the different kinds of forests and the animals that live there.
This beautifully illustrated book includes a four-page spread for both the daytime and nighttime scenes. Then, following the spreads, the conifer forest, dense forest, mixed forest and forest edge are shown in detail, along with the animals that live in that habitat.
Each forest type is explained in greater detail, and a paragraph for each animal describes a little about his activities in the daytime or at night. Eating habits, nesting behavior, and the ability to camouflage themselves and blend into their surroundings are some of the topics covered.
While this is not a comprehensive guide to forest life, Day & Night in the Forest is so beautifully illustrated that it will join our bird and wildlife books as a reference. Anyone who loves nature and forest animals will enjoy this book.

** Closed to new requests until September 30th, 2012. **
Genres: Positive fiction and non-fiction only. At this time, I’m mostly interested in Christian books, although I will review anything with a positive message. I’m also interested in motivational and inspirational audio programs. Educational tools for children and Christian-themed products may be considered.
Once we have agreed to review your book, we will provide a mailing address. We only review print books. No e-books or electronic copies of any kind will be considered.
If you are requesting a review in advance of publication, please indicate the date we can expect to receive your book.
Due to the large volume of requests we receive, we may not be able to fit your book into our schedule. We are only two people, so if we do accept your book, please anticipate at least a four month wait for your review to be posted–we follow a “first-in, first-out” schedule. We have day jobs, too, and this is a free service we offer to authors.
Acceptance of your book does not guarantee a review. At this time, we are accepting self-published works on a very limited basis.
For a complete listing of all books reviewed, please see the Catalog. All books featured on this site have been provided free of charge to the reviewer.
