Bringing Nature Home by Doug Tallamy is a great book!
And it is easy to read.
I would recommend it to everyone. Even if you think you know why
it is important to use native plants in your landscape - you will
learn more. For those who are skeptics - he has the research.
I am buying copies for my local library.
