Synopsis

Pulitzer Prize winner Barbara Kingsolver and environmental educator Lily Kingsolver collaborate on their first children's book, Coyote's Wild Home.

The book takes us into the woods, meadows, and streams of an Appalachian forest where a girl and a coyote pup each have their first woodland adventures. On their separate journeys into the wilderness with a beloved family member, the intertwined paths of child and coyote will surprise and enchant young readers. With its richly detailed illustrations and gentle biology lessons, this story of two young explorers invites readers to imagine wilderness as a place to be protected, loved, and shared.

À propos des auteurs

Barbara Kingsolver was trained as a biologist prior
to her career as a writer of best-selling novels, poetry, and
non-fiction. Her work has earned a devoted readership and major literary
awards including the Pulitzer Prize and the National Humanities Medal.
She and her husband live on a farm in the mountains of southwestern
Virginia, a home they share with sheep, poultry, and countless wild
creatures, including coyotes. This is her first book for children.

Lily Kingsolver grew up in southwest Virginia, where the Appalachian Mountains ignited her passion for wild creatures and the places they live. She has shared her love of the wild as a naturalist and educator in state parks and zoos in southwest Virginia and the Space Coast of Florida, where she is currently working on a graduate degree in environmental education. She lives in Florida with her husband, dog, and several reptiles. This is her first published book.
