World of Wonders: In Praise of Fireflies, Whale Sharks, and Other Astonishments by Aimee Nezhukumatathil

5.0

impeccably brilliant how she manages to weave fun facts about nature into her personal experiences. as a filipino gal myself, i found a lot of her anecdotes relatable. I'll also forever be fascinated by animals & weird plants lol. the cassowary chapter had to be the most shocking for me. but i also learned a lot about narwhals, axolotls, and flamingos from this hah i'm so glad i finally picked this up as my first nonfiction of 2024!
