Customer Reviews

One with Nature

I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated the calmness and the "in-the-moment"ness. Quiet family time can be as important or even more important than lacrosse games or tennis matches. It's terrible when family time needs to be penciled in to a schedule - but that is almost what is needed these day - expecially as a family grows. We are a family that spends all different kids of time in the out of doors. My son, 9 yo, especially enjoys it - from catching the newest snake to rolling down our backyard hill...he's there. Thanks for the simple reminder that nature is always ready and waiting for us!

A fresh discovery of a new world through the eyes of one of it's new residents - a discovery of our own world. "Luisa's Nature" is a look at family life, written in the creative non-fiction style from the eyes of a newborn baby named Luisa. From her birth, she slowly begins to learn a bout the natural world around her, beginning to understand the concept of family and others, as she looks to the big people that care of her and her understanding of them. A look at family and relationships through a deftly written and charming new perspective, highly recommended to community library collections catering to issues of the family.

excellent new book for parents

A well-written journal of a child's early development that is vibrant with imagination and insights, flavored by European and "green" influences. You will be captivated as Mark Stevens imaginatively shares his young daughter's thoughts, impressions and experiences. He carefully weaves into the narrative the need for and benefits of nature in children's lives. Through Luisa's eyes and perceptions, we witness the developing body and soul of a child whose views will contribute to your deeper appreciation of the mysterious gift and nature of every child. ~ Stevanne Auerbach, Ph.D., a.k.a.
