However, they make wonderful and affectionate pets for those willing to look past these misconceptions. In this chapter, we will introduce you to the world of pet rats, explain why they make excellent companions, and discuss some important things to know before bringing one into your home. Rats are highly intelligent and social animals, known for their ability to bond with their owners. Unlike many other small pets, rats have the capacity to learn and interact in meaningful ways. They can be trained to perform tricks, respond to their names, and even use a litter box.

In addition to their intelligence, rats are also affectionate. Many rat owners report that their pets develop strong bonds with them, often seeking attention and companionship.

Francis Grierson's, The Valley of Shadows, is truly a lost American classic. Written at the dawn of the twentieth century, the author has remarkably captured his adventures and observations as a child growing up on the prairies of Illinois in the years leading up the Civil War, in a region that was neither North nor South; neither for slavery nor against it; and how their small family farm became an unscheduled stop on the Underground Railroad.Written in an authentic vernacular of the time, and populated by larger than life characters, Grierson has woven a tale of excitement and mystery, set in a second Garden of Eden of wildlife and nature. The prose and dialogue is like Shakespeare of the prairie. It reads like a cross between Tom Sawyer and Uncle Tom's Cabin, and stands out among all of the other books written about that era.What people are saying:“It has a quality not to be found in any other writing about the Civil War;""Its prose is alive, strong, subtle, of warm color, almost overpowering;""No one can read it, without finding new enlightenment about our past.”Zum Buch

Henry David Thoreau’s Walking is a profound meditation on nature, freedom, and self-discovery. Originally published in 1862, this classic essay explores the philosophy of walking as both a physical and spiritual act, emphasizing the importance of immersing oneself in the wild, untamed beauty of the natural world. Thoreau argues that walking is not merely a pastime but a way to achieve a deeper connection with the land, free from societal constraints and distractions. Narrated by Declan McHugh, this audiobook brings Thoreau’s lyrical prose to life, guiding listeners through his reflections on wilderness, solitude, and personal growth. His insights remain as relevant today as they were in the 19th century, inspiring modern readers to step away from the noise of civilization and embrace the tranquility of nature. An essential work for lovers of philosophy, nature writing, and transcendentalist thought, Walking is a timeless call to slow down, wander, and rediscover the world beyond paved roads and crowded cities.Zum Buch
