Join us for a book club chat and naturalist led hike! February's book is New York Times Bestseller "World of Wonders: In Praise of Fireflies, Whale Sharks, and Other Astonishments". From beloved, award-winning poet Aimee Nezhukumatathil comes a debut work of nonfiction—a collection of essays about the natural world, and the way its inhabitants can teach, support, and inspire us. As a child, Nezhukumatathil called many places home: the grounds of a Kansas mental institution, where her Filipina mother was a doctor; the open skies and tall mountains of Arizona, where she hiked with her Indian father; and the chillier climes of western New York and Ohio. But no matter where she was transplanted—no matter how awkward the fit or forbidding the landscape—she was able to turn to our world’s fierce and funny creatures for guidance. Warm, lyrical, and gorgeously illustrated by Fumi Nakamura, World of Wonders is a book of sustenance and joy. FREE | Ages: 15+, under 18 w/adult. Free Admission - pre-registration required. Chippewa Nature Center, 400 S. Badour Rd., Midland. 1 - 3 PM. Phone 989-631-0830.
