Today we find ourselves surrounded by the constant hustle and bustle of day-to-day life and technology. Yvette Farmer and Chloe Jasmine Harris have tried to remind us that taking a step back and spending some time in nature can offer a much-needed reset. Nature Knows brings together beautifully calming yet vibrant illustrations and a story of a young boy and his family who need some time away from the chaos of their city home to deliver an essential message about the necessity of taking some time to stop and smell the flowers.

Scattered throughout are bite-sized facts about the calming presence of nature, such as how playing in dirt can strengthen our immune system and how seeing the morning sun helps us feel more alert and awake.

A wonderful picture book for any child feeling overwhelmed by the constant happenings of indoor living and an even better reminder for adults to stop and seek out the calming wisdom to be found in nature. For ages 3+.
