BookDiary of a Young Naturalist by Dara McAnulty

2020 winner of the Wainwright Prize for UK Nature Writing

Diary of a Young Naturalist chronicles a year in the life of sixteen-year-old climate activist Dara McAnulty. He shares all the joys and challenges of a life filled with family, friendships, a passion for nature, and the complexities of living with autism. Join us to discuss this remarkable new voice in nature writing and explore the role of the naturalist in modern society. 

Participants are encouraged to read the selected book prior to the discussion. Books are not supplied but are available at Schumacher Library, partner libraries, and the Madison Public Library system.

Ages 16 and up with an adult
