In prose that tracks the goings on of creatures who care little what we do or say, a refreshing humility emerges, and with it a newfound pleasure in the everyday. Watching a whistling heron, Uhart writes, that rebellious crest gives it a lunatic air. Birds in the park and dogs in the street will hold a different interest after reading Uhart's blissful foray into playful zoology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Archipelago Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/22\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781939810922\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200","brand":"Hebe Uhart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40085020049589,"sku":"9781939810922","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_ff819201-f468-40d3-af09-f469cae07b83.jpg?v=1621898535","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/animals-9781939810922","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
