Narrator Christina Delaine re-creates an idyllic summer night in editor Amy Brady's life, with crickets and real darkness in Kansas, to introduce these essays about our changing climate. Delaine later recalls Emily Raboteau's grandmother in a way that could bring a smile to listeners' faces as she narrates "How Do You Live With Displacement?"--an essay that compares the Covid pandemic to climate change. Soneela Nankani's announcements of carbon dioxide levels mark passing years as she narrates the essay titled "Leap." Angela Juarez delivers a Mississippi accent to narrate Mary Annaise Heglar's "After the Storm," recalling how as a college student Heglar returned home to find herself in the midst of Hurricane Katrina. Hannah Choi's questioning voice delivers Tracy O'Neil's thoughts about a family's escape plan for climate change in "Mobbing Call."

Bhutto narrates her memoir with delicate sincerity that invites the listener to be the person their dog believes they are.
Writer and columnist Bhutto explores a lifetime of grief, love, and self-doubt. Using a soft, intimately conversational tone, Bhutto contends with the murder of her father when she was very young, her estrangement from her controlling stepmother, and her decades-long entanglement with a man who took advantage of her understandable terror of losing people. Against these difficult circumstances, she sets the transformative love of her terrier, and her voice warms whenever Coco is her subject. Bhutto intersperses her own experiences with research on how humans first domesticated wolves as well as how dogs fit into worldwide religious traditions.

An exciting, inspiring, and provocative audiobook.
This memoir, environmental manifesto, and recounting of adventures in the Peruvian Amazon rainforest is a compelling listen. Rosolie tells the story of the Junglekeepers organization, dedicated to protecting the rainforest, with a heart-stopping pace. Rosolie and his team capture some of the world’s largest anacondas, climb to the top of the jungle canopy, fight for the survival of rare macaws, and meet the Indigenous Mashco Piro tribe. The Junglekeepers bring travelers to this most remote part of the planet where they have built the “world’s tallest treehouse.” Sadly, after overcoming threats of logging and mining and saving more than 100,000 acres of wilderness, the organization now faces drug dealers who want to use the land for their own purposes.
