Letters From Eden: A Year at Home, in the Woods by Julie Zickefoose, Sy Montgomery
4.0
This is a series of relatively short, simple, wonderfully illustrated, nature-related, generally homey essays about life and the author's relationships with nature in Southeastern Ohio. The essays are easily digestible and fun to share aloud with others. JZ brings different scenes to life, from climbing a ladder to return birds to nests or hiking through the chill air to find wonders in the Appalachian hills near her home.
This collection takes us through the natural world by seasons, much like Aldo Leopold's classic A Sand County Almanac. Also like Leopold's work though 70 years later, Letters from Eden illustrates the connection between humanity and nature.
