Our brains and attention are under assault by media that continuously and deliberately reward us for distraction. In the face of these pressures, how can we reclaim our attention and find greater peace in nature? This challenge is important for all of us but has special significance for young children and those who love them.
John Muir “Jack” Laws has written and illustrated several books including The Laws Guide to Nature Drawing and Journaling (2016), The Laws Guide to Drawing Birds (2012), Sierra Birds: a Hiker’s Guide (2004), The Laws Guide to the Sierra Nevada (2007), and The Laws Pocket Guide Set to the San Francisco Bay Area (2009). He is a regular contributor to Bay Nature magazine with his “Naturalists Notebook” column.
Both scientist and artist, Jack’s deep love and respect for nature instilled by his parent at an early age grew into a commitment to stewardship and a passion to share the delight of exploring nature with others. We are honored that Jack is sharing that passion and commitment with us.
