The Secret Knowledge of Water by ChildsFebruary 1, 2001 3 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is a beautifully written book which reads like poetry. It is a must for a nature lover's library.

Crossing PathsNovember 2, 2000 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
A stunning and lively account of encounters with animals in unusual and not-so unusual settings. Childs does his research on the behavior and anatomy of many of the animals he writes about which I found impressive. Not only does he open the reader's eyes to the many faces of animal behaviour and character, but he also injects human emotion, which allows the reader to connect with each story. The accounts are not just moving, but downright hillarious at times.
