:: Connect with Nature by Anna Carlile
[ETA: I shared this post with friends who took advantage of the low price, and it jumped up quickly. I was hoping it would stay low much longer! It’s still a lovely book, but not quite a steal.]
Friends, this book is gorgeous. And at this moment it is only $3.45 on Amazon. Hardback cover, 240 pages, exquisite photography and dreamy nature-inspired ideas.

The book is divided by season, with activities for all four seasons. The two-page photography spreads throughout the book are graced with lovely quotes.

Climb a tree, stack rocks, walk barefoot, go on a picnic, smell the rain.
Learn about moon phases and read the clouds (the pages on various cloud formations are fantastic).

I wanted to purchase a stack of these books to have handy for gifts, but unfortunately the seller has a limit of 1 book per customer. So I am selfishly keeping this one for my own enjoyment.

Do we need a special code? It wasn't the same price when I clicked the link. It still looks like a lovely book! Thank you--I love your book reviews!
Anon~ Unfortunately, the price jumped soon after I posted and several friends took advantage of the offer. :( I've edited to post. So sorry!
What an odd thing, for a seller to limit how many copies you can buy of her book! You'd think she'd want to sell as many as possible.
