WORLD OF WONDERS - AIMEE NEZHUKUMATATHIL KARTON...

A New York Times Bestseller 'Within two pages  nature writing feels different and fresh and new
... This book demands we find the eyes to see and the heart to love such things once more. It
is a very fine book indeed  truly full of wonder' - James Rebanks  author of Pastoral Song
'Unusual and captivating ... a thing of wonder  the book that most took me by surprise this
year' - Jini Reddy  author of Wanderland Aimee Nezhukumatathil has had many homes  but wherever
she was - however awkward the fit or forbidding the landscape - she found guidance and
perspective in nature. The axolotl smiles  even in the face of unkindness  the touch-me-not
plant shakes off unwanted advances  the narwhal survives its hostile environment. Even in the
strange and the unlovely  Nezhukumatathil finds beauty and kinship. Warm  lyrical and
gorgeously illustrated by Fumi Mini Nakamura  this book ranges through joy and pain 
encountering love  motherhood and heritage  racism and the destruction humans can wreak. In all
those things  it shows that if you listen carefully  if you open your eyes wide  the world is
full of wonders.
