I don’t think it’s a secret that we love the Over and Under series of books – we’ve reviewed loads of them over the years! They’re really fab for home educators, bringing educational stories to your nature studies or ecosystems topics.
They’re living books, so brilliant for those following the Charlotte Mason method, and the lovely, gentle tales mean they’re great for families using the Waldorf Steiner approach too. Not to mention, several of them tie in beautifully to certain Exploring Nature With Children weeks! They’re all super informative, despite being classed as fiction, and are a great addition to your homeschool library!

Over and Under the Rainforest –
This book is set in the Costa Rican rainforest and highlights all the amazing plants and creatures that can be found there – sloths, tree frogs and monkeys abound! See our full review of Over and Under the Rainforest here, or buy from amazon.com or amazon.co.uk.
Over and Under the Canyon –
This tale is set in the Southern California Desert, and shows how a dry and apparently barren landscape is actually teeming with life! (The kangaroo rats were a huge hit with our kids!) See our full review of Over and Under the Canyon here, or buy from amazon.com or amazon.co.uk.
As you can see, we think they’re all fab! Fingers crossed there’ll be another one out soon!!!
