Synopsis

Decoding nature’s hidden messages.

Could a garden spider help you see your intrinsic beauty?

Might flower seeds hold a key to inspiration and creativity?

What if a rambling tomato vine provided insight on reaching your goals?

These are just a few of the possibilities that naturalist and garden writer Pamela Baxter explores in this collection of 30 short essays, in which she takes every-day occurrences and decodes the hidden messages they contain. Each essay is based on a personal experience and reflects the deep connection Baxter shares with the natural world—from things as tiny and insignificant as caterpillars and moss to elements as large and obvious as trees and mountains.

Accompanying each entry are curated questions that invite you to consider how these messages relate to your own life.
