I agree, each account gives more details that the other does not. The focus of chapter one is the days, and in chapter two the focus is the creation of man. But the creation of man should not contradict the order of events in Genesis one. Namely the implication that man was created first, then the plants and the animals.
When reading the Bible it is not good to read it expecting a literal communication. The Bible has gone through a long development in order for us to be able to read it in english and in a book format. Please understand that scriptures contained in the Bible probably were not written in the format of chapter 1, 2, 3, etc originally. Also understand that some believe that the first account (G1) was a spiritual creation and the second account (G2) was the actual physical creation. I think a good idea for you is to perhaps research the spiritual creation/physical creation idea.
