Arthur, The Amazing Mantis: A Story of Unexpected Connection - Stories From The Natural World, #1

"A wonderfully thought-provoking and relaxing book highlighting the bond between a human and a tiny little creature. A finalist and highly recommended!" -The Wishing Shelf Book Awards A praying mantis mysteriously dropped from above one early October day. I named him Arthur. He spent almost a month with me and during that time we formed a mutually curious and tender bond. The photographs I made when we were together became the inspiration to share this story. Arthur's quiet adventure is a soulful story for nature lovers of all ages, children and adults alike.
It is a story of serendipity and delight, respect and wonder, and the ultimate understanding that we are all truly connected by an invisible and sacred web.  Reader Reviews An exquisite book! I enjoyed it tremendously. Such a touching, true, and lovely story with photographs. I recommend it highly!  A wonderful story relating the connections we all may encounter in the cycle of life on planet earth.
A magnificent gift for any budding biologist, or lover of the natural world. Arthur, the Amazing Mantis is a beautifully told story of two gentle souls that find one another, connecting through spirit and the universal language of love. It took me back to a place of childlike innocence and remembering the simple, sacred, quiet aspects of life that if we are moving too fast may go unnoticed. Stories from the Natural World, Book 136 pages
