Why read it?

2 authors picked Rewild Yourself as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I love nature, and I love the outdoors, and yet, like Larry David, I’m the first to complain about walking with no destination and to start swinging my hand around to protect myself from bugs.

I wanted to really love nature and be one of those forest nymphs you see all over social media. This book did just that.

This is one of my favorite joy-spotting books. It’s so engaging and accessible that I’d challenge anyone to read it and not want to try at least one of the activities!

Since reading it the first time, I’ve unearthed my rarely used binoculars (and left their lens caps off), requested an inflatable kayak for my birthday, and now always keep my waterproof trousers by the front door. I’d recommend this to anyone seeking more joy and calm in their life.
