INSCRIBED BY AUTHOR on the half-title page. Nicknamed the "Real-Life Lorax" by National Geographic, the biologist, botanist, and conservationist Meg Lowman-aka "CanopyMeg"-takes us on an adventure into the "eighth continent" of the world's treetops, along her journey as a tree scientist, and into climate action. A blend of memoir and fieldwork account, The Arbornaut gives us the chance to live among scientists and travel the world-even in a hot-air balloon! It is the engrossing, uplifting story of a nerdy tree climber-the only girl at the science fair-who becomes a giant inspiration, a groundbreaking, ground-defying field biologist, and a hero for trees everywhere.
