Have you ever looked at trees, plants and animals as teachers? Robin Wall Kimmerer shares her experience as a botanist and her wisdom as a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, to awaken our ecological consciousness. She opens the reader’s eyes to the gifts and lessons from strawberries, pecan trees and salamanders. Part biographical, Ms. Kimmerer opens up about the struggles she’s endured as a mother, native American, and a disruptor in the botany field. As we collectively look for creative solutions to climate change, Braiding Sweetgrass offers a new perspective about our relationship with nature, which could lead to lasting solutions.
