It’s Launch Day for Steven Rinella’s New Book

Young readers will learn how to gut a fish, track wildlife, build a shelter, make art using ingredients found in nature, and much more. They’ll also read about notable naturalists and conservation figures and learn why it’s so important to engage with the natural world.

“When you think of Earth, don’t just think of it as a giant sphere made of rock and dirt that is home to plants and animals,” Steve writes. “Instead, try to imagine the earth as a thing that is alive. [...] As for yourself, imagine that you’re a creature that has been given a home on the surface of this giant, beautiful creature.”

No family is immune from the pull of devices. But this book will show how to get your household started on a lifetime of adventures in the great outdoors.

Grab your copy of Catch a Crayfish, Count the Stars: Fun Projects, Skills and Adventures for Outdoor Kids. And tune in with your kids for a special episode of the MeatEater Trivia Podcast on June 14th.
