Suggestions

 

It's an idea to make recommendations, reviews and suggestions for materials that help me and encourage me every day. I often write about subjects to show people how to learn more about the natural world. It's not only visiting websites, typing keys in a search engine and hope to get whatever results. It takes studying and reading. So I shall make a suggestion now and then, of what materials to read. I will make a start tonight. We just had a full moon, and the season has made people think of the paranormal so what I want to quickly talk about is this book: 

Ghosts and Goblins: Stories for Halloween by Wilhelmina Harper. Originally this was published in 1936 and the image shows another version published in 1965. It has gone out of print, although you may come across second hand copies in the market, online or in the library. Described by Google  as "well-known shivery tales of cats, goblins, witches and ghosts from many countries of the world" 

A small reference book for anyone starting to learn about fauna is Berries (A Blandford Mini-Guide) by Hedvig Wright Ostern. This is 128 pages and was first published in 1981. It will help you find out the various plants and berries and flowers. The same people have also published a variety of books on different nature subjects. This pocket book will show the berries of Britain.

I will post more suggestions another time.
