Het lied van de merel & andere wonderen van de natuur

I’ve been reading a few pages each night before bed, and the way Richardson connects scientific facts with mythology makes each entry feel like a tiny revelation. The chapter on how nature shapes our emotions really resonated with me.

Finally, a book that explains both the science behind bonding with plants and the mythology that makes nature feel magical. I especially loved the chapter on how weather patterns shape our emotions — it made me see my own mood swings in a whole new light.

I've never read an almanac quite like this one — the blend of science and mythology actually makes you stop and think about how nature shapes your mood. The section on bonding with plants genuinely surprised me.
