O sentido do abraio

Synopsis of O sentido do abraio

A celebration of nature for people of all ages. Combining two of Catro Ventos' editorial lines, ecology and alternative education, this essay by marine biologist Rachel Carson (1907-1964) explores how to cultivate a sense of wonder in children. Originally written as an article for parents, this work reflects Carson's personal project to encourage the exploration and conservation of nature throughout life, arguing that the capacity for wonder is a battle won or lost in childhood. This edition features careful binding, photographs, and green onion paper to evoke the natural world.
