Tiere und Pflanzen in Wald und Feld

Three curious friends—Peter, Grete, and Paul—spend their days wandering from a pond beneath towering elms through hedgerows, meadow, and forest on the way to school. Their adventures become the backbone of a lively guide to the creatures and plants that share their countryside, written in clear, accessible language for young readers. Bright colour plates and detailed sketches bring each encounter to life, inviting listeners to look closely at the world around them.

The first lesson invites listeners into a sun‑lit meadow where spider webs glitter like tiny diamonds on blooming gorse, explaining how the eight‑legged architects build and hunt. Subsequent chapters explore everything from the hidden nests of larks to the bustling activity of ant hills, the bright spring flowers, and the playful habits of squirrels. By blending observation with simple explanations, the book encourages children to become naturalists of their own backyard.
