About this book

Botanist Robin Wall Kimmerer brings scientific observation into conversation with her experience as a mother and a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation. Through linked personal essays, encounters with strawberries, sweetgrass, trees, and other living beings become stories about gratitude, responsibility, and belonging. Her central question is not simply what people can learn about nature, but what a reciprocal relationship with it might require. Environmental damage and Indigenous dispossession are acknowledged alongside affection and wonder. Reflective rather than plot-driven, the book offers substantial, self-contained pieces that invite close attention to ordinary life and the connections that sustain it.
