Every time I show people videos of Heather eating, they become cricket sympathizers. Honestly I can't blame them... ^^"
Heather may be adorable and laid-back, but she basically caught these poor crickets as I dropped them in like a dog begging for table scraps lol

Follow The Leader (Ant Spiral)
block printed denim, cotton batting, thread, and gifted fabric backing
thinking about natural phenomena, repetition from a single block carving, adaptive and maladaptive behaviors, and dreams from years back where my blankets turned into swarms of insects

Buzz Words: Poems About Insects
This is a perfect book for anyone who appreciates insects, I've been reading the poems whenever I have a spare moment. I appreciate that the book is split into sections based on what type of insect is the topic of the poems.
The Illustrated Origin of Species by Charles Darwin
I have been looking for a nice copy of On the Origin of Species for a WHILE because every edition I find has incredibly tiny text and is impossible to read. I found this edition at my local public library, and it's not only formatted in a way that's actually legible but it also has illustrations which is great! Unfortunately the book itself is a bit beat up, but that's what you get from library books sometimes! If I love this edition like I expect I will, I might look into purchasing my own copy.
Improbable Destinies: Fate, Chance, and the Future of Evolution by Jonathan B. Losos
This is my absolute favorite book ever, I love the way it's written and you can truly tell that Losos loves his career. I've been reading it for almost a year now, only because I've been reading it slowly to properly appreciate each story that Losos shares. This book has been a huge deciding factor in my decision to study biology.
Feel free to share recommendations of your favorite science-y books! <3
