A New York Times bestseller National Book Award finalist Sy Montgomery reflects on the personalities and quirks of 13 animals--her friends--who have profoundly affected her in this stunning, poetic, and life-affirming memoir featuring illustrations by Rebecca Green. Understanding someone who belongs to another species can be transformative. No one knows this better than author, naturalist, and adventurer Sy Montgomery. To research her books, Sy has traveled the world and encountered some of the planet's rarest and most beautiful animals. From tarantulas to tigers, Sy's life continually intersects with and is informed by the creatures she meets. This restorative memoir reflects on the personalities and quirks of thirteen animals--Sy's friends--and the truths revealed by their grace. It also explores vast themes: the otherness and sameness of people and animals; the various ways we learn to love and become empathetic; how we find our passion; how we create our families; coping with loss and despair; gratitude; forgiveness; and most of all, how to be a good creature in the world.Binding Type: Hardcover

Terrific content, soft cover.
Format: Paperback
It is way smaller than expected but it is amazing in content. The only think I do not like is that it has an extremely soft external cover, which worries me on the long run.

Useful and creative gift
Format: Paperback
I bought this for my friend since she has really been into sewing and dressing up in bolder outfit. When she saw the book, she told me she has been eyeing this and was really interested in the different color combinations. It is a small but unique book with so many different patterns and color combinations that can inspire people's lives with how they dress or decorate their living area.

Lightweight, Gentle & perfect for sensitive skin, instant hydration
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I received this CeraVe PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion this morning and tried it for the first time tonight, and I’m already really impressed.
The texture is lightweight and smooth. It applies easily and absorbs quickly without leaving any greasy or sticky feeling. My skin felt instantly hydrated, soft, and comfortable.
What I like most is how gentle it is. I’m currently using treatments that make my skin more sensitive, and this moisturizer didn’t cause any irritation at all. It actually helped calm my skin and made it feel more balanced.
I also appreciate that it contains ingredients like niacinamide, ceramides, and hyaluronic acid, which are great for supporting the skin barrier and hydration.
After just one use, my skin already looks more supple and healthy. It’s a great option for nighttime, especially if you don’t like heavy creams.
So far, I’m very happy with it and will definitely keep using it.

Highly recommended for all skin types!

Game-Changer Night Moisturizer – Lightweight, Hydrating & Perfect for Sensitive Skin
I’ve been using the CeraVe PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion for a few weeks now, and honestly, it has become a staple in my skincare routine.
First thing I noticed is how lightweight and fast-absorbing it is. It sinks into the skin within seconds without leaving any greasy or sticky feeling, which is perfect if you don’t like heavy night creams. Despite being lightweight, it provides deep hydration throughout the night—I wake up with soft, smooth, and refreshed skin.
What really makes this product stand out is its ingredient combination:
• Hyaluronic acid keeps my skin hydrated by locking in moisture
• Niacinamide helps calm my skin and reduces redness
• Ceramides (1, 3, 6-II) strengthen the skin barrier
I also love that it’s fragrance-free, oil-free, and non-comedogenic, so it doesn’t clog pores or irritate my skin. I have slightly sensitive and acne-prone skin, and this has worked perfectly without causing breakouts.
