The work serves as an accessible resource for nature enthusiasts, aiming to educate readers on the names, habitats, and characteristics of common fern species found in North America. This book appeals to anyone with an interest in botany and the natural world as it seeks to deepen the reader's understanding of this often-overlooked group of plants. The opening of the book presents a heartfelt preface in which the author expresses her hope to foster a relationship between readers and ferns, much like she succeeded with wildflowers in her previous publication. She acknowledges the widespread curiosity about ferns and hints at the lack of accessible literature on the subject, which serves as motivation for her own work. Parsons encourages readers to appreciate nature personally, suggesting that engaging with ferns offers a path to both enjoyment and relaxation in the wonders of the natural world.
