The Young Earth Lover's Book of Nature

Deepa Agarwal

STOP.

Listen. A tree has a message for you.

Halt. There's a tiger on the prowl.

Buckle up. You're rafting down an icy river.

Get up and start bailing. The storm is rising and raging.

Take note. The climate is changing.

Be awed and inspired as this book takes you on a whistle-stop tour of the spectacular diversity of nature in more than 40 classic and modern stories, poems and essays.

Read some of the best writing by wildlife experts, bestselling authors, nature writers, adventurers and explorers. Feel oh-so-lucky about being on this life-giving Earth, and open your eyes to how we are harming it and endangering our own future.

Because, after all, YOU are going to inherit the one and only blue planet - and take care of it.
