Quaint, superbly old fashioned, yet insightful and full of wonder and curiosity for the natural world. Something that mixes the childlike wonder and fascination of the world with the probing and knowledge hungry essence of science.
Jean-Henri Fabre is the naturalist we all want to be when imagining a life in the field, studying and exploring the world.

I do not like spiders, but Fabre did, and therefore this book is fascinating. He describes several different spiders found commonly around his home, questions he wondered about them, and observations/experiments that answered his questions.
