Coming Soon!
Did you know that Finca Cántaros Environmental Association Founder & Director, Lilly Briggs, has written a children’s book called “Lucy Loves Nature: The Search for the Mysterious Potoo”? The beautiful illustrations are by the well-known and talented Costa Rican illustrator, Vicky Ramos.
Lucy Loves Nature aims to inspire interest and build knowledge about the natural world (especially birds) among kids through the eyes of a little girl and her encounters with plants and animals, as she explores the forest with her trusty sidekick “Yiggy,” a Clay-coloured Thrush, in search of a bird called a Common Potoo.
Lucy is a nine-year-old girl who lives in Costa Rica. She loves nature, and is always exploring and learning about the incredible world of plants and animals around her. Yiggy is a Clay-coloured Thrush, which is the national bird of Costa Rica (where there are known as Yigüirros).
Stay tuned for more details about when and where you will be able to buy this book! All proceeds will go to supporting the environmental education work of Finca Cántaros.
