Book Description

Closer to the Ground is the deeply personal story of a father learning to share his love of nature with his children, not through the indoor lens of words or pictures, but directly, palpably, by exploring the natural world as they forage, cook and eat from the woods and sea. With illustrations by Nikki McClure. This compelling, masterfully written tale follows Dylan Tomine and his family through four seasons as they hunt chanterelles, fish for salmon, dig clams and gather at the kitchen table, mouths watering, to enjoy the fruits of their labor. Closer to the Ground captures the beauty and surprise of the natural world--and the ways it teaches us how to live--with humor, gratitude and a nose for adventure as keen as a child's. It is a book filled with weather, natural history and many delicious meals.

Audiobooks have made long flights feel like a breeze – a true travel essential. My daily workouts are more enjoyable now, thanks to seamless integration with Apple Watch. WiFi downloads save a lot of time. Great feature! Great for fans of this genre! The pacing, narration, and production quality were all excellent. It felt like a movie playing in my mind. I’ll be checking out more from this narrator for sure.

The noise reduction feature in ListenBook Pro is a game-changer for enjoying clear recordings. Looping playback helps me focus on challenging content and grasp complex concepts. A study must-have! This app is a must-have for audiobook enthusiasts. The ability to adjust skip intervals and playback speed is fantastic. I also love the auto-bookmark feature—it saves my place automatically, so I never lose track. Worth every penny!

📚 Ironing has become a joy with audiobooks – wrinkles are no match for these captivating stories! 👗🎧 The app is perfect for bedtime listening. The sleep timer is a must-have. The narrator was good but spoke a bit too slowly for my taste. I had to speed it up to 1.2x which then made some parts sound slightly unnatural.

Automatic metadata extraction keeps my library organized. It's a time-saver! This audiobook was neither good nor bad - simply average. The narrator's delivery was professional but uninspired, and the recording quality was clean though not exceptional. It provided satisfactory entertainment without standing out from similar titles.
