“Just finished reading the first of one of your recommended books. I read “The Sixth Extinction” by Elizabeth Kolbert. Excellent book! Well written and very informative. Looking forward to finding more gems in your lists.”

“Here in Western Maine, my library patrons enjoy reading titles that involve nature. The Nature Book Guide has offered both informative and entertaining titles in all genres that broaden awareness of planet health and human connection to the wild. The contributors give insight that add value to the endorsements, piquing my interest both as a librarian and a reader to check out a particular title. The Guide is a fantastic resource. It has influenced both my recommendations to my library patrons and has provided me with ideas for titles to add to my shelves.”

Abigail Austin, Circulation Supervisor, Rumford Public Library, Rumford, Maine

“One of the best attributes of Nature Book Guide is inclusion of “older” books. More accessible, less trendy, clearly not just some recycled publisher press releases.”
—Anne, a reader from Minneapolis

“We love the generous mission of the Nature Book Guide -- to bring together a community of readers and writers in love with the natural world. Every issue features new voices and exciting books to discover. It's a thoughtful resource we've always dreamed of!”

—Jeff Lee, Rocky Mountain Land Library

“The Nature Book Guide is a resource for excellent reading and real life experiences. Through Lisa Gordon's review I learned of the Chihuahuan Desert Research Institute and my entire family enjoyed the trails, birds, botanical garden, and cacti collection as a result. If not for the Nature Book Guide, we would have missed this treasure. Thank you!”
—Linzee, a reader from Iowa
