That book “rivaled Rachel Carson’s \u003ci\u003eSilent Spring\u003c\/i\u003e” (the \u003ci\u003eCincinnati Enquirer\u003c\/i\u003e), was “an absolute must-read for parents” (the \u003ci\u003eBoston Globe\u003c\/i\u003e), and “an inch-thick caution against raising the fully automated child” (the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e). His  follow-up book, \u003ci\u003eThe Nature Principle,\u003c\/i\u003e addressed the needs of adults and outlined a “new nature movement and its potential to improve the lives of all people no matter where they live” (McClatchy Newspapers).\u003ci\u003eVitamin N\u003c\/i\u003e is a one-of-a-kind, comprehensive, and practical guidebook for the whole family and the wider community, including tips not only for parents eager to share nature with their kids but also for those seeking nature-smart schools, medical professionals, and even careers. It is a dose of pure inspiration, reminding us that looking up at the stars or taking a walk in the woods is as exhilarating as it is essential, at any age.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRichard Louv's new book, \u003ci\u003eOur Wild Calling\u003c\/i\u003e, is available now.\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Workman Publishing","offers":[{"title":"9781616205782","offer_id":21419579783,"sku":"9781616205782","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9781616205614","offer_id":31339197322,"sku":"9781616205614","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1210\/1100\/products\/9781616205614-optimized.jpg?v=1698377494","url":"https:\/\/workman-feed-prod.myshopify.com\/products\/vitamin-n","provider":"zzz_Workman Publishing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
