From sixteen-year-old Dara McAnulty, a globally renowned figure in the youth climate activist movement, comes a memoir about loving the natural world and fighting to save it. Diary of a Young Naturalist chronicles the turning of a year in Dara's Northern Ireland home patch. Beginning in spring—when "the sparrows dig the moss from the guttering and the air is as puffed out as the robin's chest"—these diary entries about his connection to wildlife and the way he sees the world are vivid, evocative, and moving. As well as Dara's intense connection to the natural world, Diary of a Young Naturalist captures his perspective as a teenager juggling exams, friendships, and a life of campaigning. We see his close-knit family, the disruptions of moving and changing schools, and the complexities of living with autism. "In writing this book," writes Dara, "I have experienced challenges but also felt incredible joy, wonder, curiosity, and excitement. In sharing this journey my hope is that people of all generations will not only understand autism a little more but also appreciate a child's eye view on our delicate and changing biosphere."Ver libro
Belonging: A Journey of Healing, Forgiving, and Manifesting Everything I Ever Desired is a soul-stirring memoir that dares to ask—what if everything you've ever needed was already within you? From surviving childhood trauma and navigating abandonment to becoming a national youth leader, spiritual visionary, and respected scholar, Dr. Shawn Boone chronicles a path marked by pain, purpose, and profound awakening. Through deeply personal storytelling, he reveals how his search for belonging was never about fitting into the world—it was about remembering his place within it. This is not just a story of survival. It is a sacred declaration of reclamation. In these pages, you will witness how silence becomes sound, how trauma transforms into truth, and how forgiveness becomes the ultimate portal to freedom. At the heart of this journey is the discovery of The Theory of Embodied Vision™, Parallel Actualization™, and the S.E.E.D. Framework™—a powerful process rooted in Stillness, Embodiment, Expression, and Discernment. These guiding principles help readers align with their highest self, break free from inherited patterns, and manifest a life of meaning and purpose. Written with poetic vulnerability and spiritual clarity, Belonging is for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider in their own life. Whether you are healing from loss, grappling with identity, or yearning to manifest something more, this book offers a mirror for your truth—and a map back home to yourself. If you've ever whispered "there must be more," this book will show you: there is. And you are it. For readers of spiritual memoirs, personal development, and conscious manifestation, Belonging is both a mirror and a map.Ver libro
A witty and warm memoir about growing up with the help of a very special cat—from Helen Brown, internationally bestselling author of Cleo and other tales of the beloved cats in her life . . . Who was the first pet you ever loved? The youngest daughter of an eccentric engineer and a musical theater fanatic, Helen Brown grew up in the New Zealand coastal town of New Plymouth in a crumbling castle overrun by nature, and overshadowed by nearby, beautiful Mount Taranaki. It's 1966, the Pacific islands are being used for atomic bomb testing, and her parents and siblings are swept up in their own lives. Twelve years old, struggling in school, and facing eye surgery—for the second time—Helen feels lonely and lost . . . Until her father gives her a three-month-old, gray-and-brown tiger-striped tabby with extra toes on each paw. Noticing an M design on the cat's forehead, Helen names her new companion Mickey. Inquisitive, rambunctious, clever, and skittish, Mickey disrupts the already quirky household with his mischief. But Helen finds love, joy—and herself—in learning what it means to care for a living creature who needs her as much as she needs him.Ver libro
