P. 64

In an age when it can be perceived that we live in a time of decay

               and disconnection from our origins of Nature, Dorothy Lander

               reconnects us to the wonder, awe, and sublime of Nature. Hmmm

               M. The Humdinger is not only a story to stimulate the imagination

               of children, but it serves as a re-awakening for adults––to re-

               connect with our web of life. The plant press images are

               transportive and whimsical all at once as I felt the hummingbirds,

               butterflies, bees and flowers, along with the humming, come alive

               to me. Our wonder and imagination serve as an emotional

               connection and portal to what it means to be human––that we are

               of this diverse and dynamic world called Nature...Hmmm M. The


               Humdinger is a brilliant reminder of this! Realization of this

               indivisible connection is more important than ever––our future

               depends on it!
