Reisgids 111 Adventures Around the World That You Must Not Miss | Stichting Kunstboek

Strandvondsten is een onmisbare gids voor de nieuwsgierige strandwandelaar. Aan de hand van teksten van zeekenner Hans De Blauwe en foto's van natuurfotograaf Misjel Decleer verneem je alles over je vondsten tijdens een wandeling aan het Noordzeestrand. Je leert er de belangrijkste dieren en planten herkennen: krabben, schelpen, kwallen, vissen, mosdiertjes of wieren. Maar ook niet levende strandvondsten krijgen een plaats, zoals visnetten, turfresten, stenen, hout, plastics, beenderen, haaientanden, potscherven... Iedere vondst wordt geïllustreerd met een of meerdere foto's en toegelicht in een korte tekst. Deze handige veldgids biedt urenlang ontdekkingsplezier en ontsluiert het boeiende verhaal achter ruim 400 verschillende vondsten op het strand. Een uniek en handig naslagwerk dat thuishoort in de bibliotheek van iedere natuurliefhebber!
