Author Julie Zikefoose is a frequent commentator on NPR's 'All Things Considered', and has painted nature all her life--so her book reflects not only an avid nature writer's appreciation for the wild, but a set of seasonal essays accompanied by black and white and color drawings that provide lovely first-person reflections. It's a truly lovely book highly recommended for either coffee table display at home or a public library acquisition.
