thanks!





Special thanks to Will Roberts and his AP environmental science class at Powell High School.

The students read my book "Natural Histories" in the fall and invited me to their classroom on Monday to discuss it. We also talked about swimming snakes and the taste of cicadas and osage oranges. Since I've eaten the former but never the latter, I therefore learned from one of the students that it's like eating white tar.

Merry Christmas and have a happy holiday break!
