RaveThe Irish Times (IRE)Is it ageist to expect a callow book from a young author? Any such expectations will be confounded by this wise, lyrical, and well-researched book ... McAnulty’s way of experiencing the world, his candid enthusiasm, his powers of observation, his passion for nature – all are being rediscovered by a world population forced to stop short and take stock ... Post Covid-19, the issues of climate change and the Sixth Mass Extinction will remain. Reading this marvellous diary leaves me with the impression that whatever the future holds, with young people like McAnulty coming to the fore it will be in safer hands ... Little Toller has done McAnulty proud with this beautifully produced book, which features an arresting cover, tasteful black and white photographs, and a glossary. The book can be ordered directly from the publisher, and deserves a wide readership.
