How fun is this!!! I can't wait to compare it to some books that I already have. I am betting that other than dated pictures, it is still more than relevant!!

Share....you can never, ever have enough knowledge!!
My "go-to resource" just went to Germany for the summer :) Don't you just love it when hubbies bring home fun stuff?.....instead of say.....a spider in a jar just to show you how big it is?
