There’s some really neat information in this book, but to get to the gems, you have to sift through the author’s racist point of view. There’s also fatphobia? In a book about nature?? I really wanted to listen to the nature facts and studies, but the author just made me so uncomfortable i had to stop.

Thank you so much for reading this to me so I could meet my deadline and participate in discussion!! Excellent job!

Interesting topic, but the material felt repetitive. The narrator became hard to listen to after a while, too high pitched. I had to listen in small doses.

I used my VIP credit for this book, and I am so glad they did. This book has a lot of small ideas I can easily incorporate into my daily life. I understand why I like being outside and hiking so much more now. I am mindful of the ambient sounds of birds chirping. This book encouraged me to appreciate birds a lot more and what they have to offer the world and even, to be selfish, what birds have to offer me. I love this book and I recommend it to people looking to get more fulfillment and joy from life.

Brilliantly written and structured with some wonderful insights into the world around us and how we can benefit from nature

Great information and inspiring
