Eliza Brightwen tamed wild creatures with patience and gentleness, from an orphaned starling to ducks, a jay, and a young cuckoo. Her affectionate accounts show wild nature won not by force but by kindness. Tender and charming. Befriend wild animals the gentle way with a kind-hearted naturalist.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
