Your Lowly Hedgehog Knows - Gareth Howell-Jones

Your Lowly Hedgehog Knows takes a clear, fresh look at the physical world around us and finds it more startling and more heartening than the media would have us believe. It raises many questions and even answers some of them. How can a cat be a portal to the universe? Why did our ancestors make cave paintings? Who is Mr Bun? How do you write a tree? And, above all, what is it that your lowly hedgehog knows?Like the previous volume Do Not Call the Tortoise, Hedgehog offers a quietly revolutionary new/old world-view with the help of poets, biologists, woodlice, trees, John Lennon, cats (of course), a record-breaking vulture and, most of all, an openness to wonder.
