# The Sense of Wonder **Author:** Rachel Carson **Date Read:** 2019/09/16 **Rating:** 5/5 **Bookshelves:** others ## My Review A smooth read aloud to my daughter and myself. Enjoyed and rediscovered a sense of awe that I remember experiencing in wide open natural places. I’d say this is a must-read for every parent-child. The celebration of the shore, the temperate forest, the rain, the reindeer lichen and the way it feels to stand over it when it’s dry and it’s resilience when wet from rain, the smells, sounds and the feel of the outdoors; the wonder of discovering crickets in the dark and the sound of water and the staring at the moon...the whistle of the winds and the drizzle of rain....a wonderful read (aloud). One day I hope my daughter will experience the awe I did as I read it aloud to her...
