Book Hero thinking about your next read

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Wild Life is an achingly beautiful gift book that introduces the concept of rewilding. No matter whether you live in the mountains, by the coast, along the banks of a river, or in the inner-city, this book is your passport to disconnect from one world and reconnect with another; to put down your devices and pick up where your wild self left off.

Featuring stunning photography that evoke the magic and healing effects of nature, Wild Life offers 50 accessible projects that will bring rewilding into your life. You’ll press wildflowers, rewild your garden, and create a series of micro adventures in your hometown or city. You’ll use the sky to find north and the trees to find your way while out camping and hiking. You’ll close your eyes and listen to the birds, kick off your shoes, and forage for seaweed.

You’ll reconnect with your roots, and somewhere along the way, find yourself again.
