Aprašymas

A beautiful and hopeful story of how a young impassioned naturalist grows up to change the world. For everyone who cares about our fragile planet.

Rachel Carson was a quiet child who felt most at home among the creatures of the natural world. But she went on to become a marine biologist in a field reserved for men and a visionary writer whose groundbreaking book Silent Spring launched the global environmental movement.

In this stunning novel of her life, readers are introduced to the shy, nature-loving child who overcame economic adversity, family struggles, and gender discrimination to become a courageous force of nature and one of the most prominent writers and thinkers of the twentieth century. Rachel's deep love and respect for nature compelled her to use her voice to make change and will inspire young readers to do the same.

Beautifully packaged with interior drawings by two-time Caldecott Medalist Sophie Blackall, Force of Nature is a must-read for nature lovers and STEM / STEAM enthusiasts, as well as young activists, feminists, and writers. It is sure to motivate the next generation to stewardship and action.
