If you want to fall in love with nature, this is where you should start. Though you've to look for every flower and bird on the internet, it's still the best way to get introduced to nature and appreciate true happiness.

well this was my first book which was kind of say like this book.and honestly as a wanted-to-be-artist and a somewhat nature lover i bought this book for the impression created by the cover.it happens long ago that when usually go for browsing books in a famous book shop near the city to have a change of atmosphere my eyes caught this brilliant green book and when i lifted it for curiosity i felt the texture on the cover and fell in love with that.
a typical bibliophile.i bought it few months or a year ago but never quiet had chance to read and since I am out of job now my favorite pastime are reading books,watching tv and along with other so-called wasteful things to my father.
and when i saw this book lying before me on the shelf i thought why shouldn't i give it a try to read.hence i went on a what seemed like a long journey but in short life.the author who was an indian born english man has a great knowledge of his mother tongue.i went along with him to beautiful places.like himalays,Delhi,Assam,Punjab,Mussoorie and to many forests and adventures alike.
i heard the tales of tiger,leopard and other felines.then it was time for music of birds and insects,their life styles.forset fires,elephants,trophy huntings etc.from forst fires to hill tops and earthquakes to cyclone storms.flowes and trees even weeds.frogs to the tiny firefly which happens to be the tiniest.wow.
what a writing.i thought how it would feel being like the author himself able to explain our day-to-day life in an extraordinary way and to live the same.wonderfull and again i praise his works.this was just the beginning and in time i will read more of his works,i hope.
