Written on November 2nd , 2026 by Aimee Nezhukumatathil
This book was selected by Sequoia branch members and will be read from November 2 - December 13.
The member who nominated the book has a few words to share on why they made this suggestion:
“I suggested this book that has been on the Kansas Notable Book Awards list and am excited to re-read it because I loved the author’s voice, interspersing personal life anecdotes with amazing facts about unique plants and animals. And it fits with reading diverse authors as poet/essaysit Aimee Nezhukumatathil has a Filipina and Malayali Indian background.”
