The flora and fauna of the natural world have learned to adapt to their surroundings. Maybe they can offer humans some help in adapting to ours? Poet Aimee Nezhukumatathil joins host Krys Boyd to talk about finding solace and inspiration from the beautiful and odd creatures that stand out – or blend in – to their surroundings and what we can learn from them. Her book is “World of Wonders: In Praise of Fireflies, Whale Sharks, and Other Astonishments.”
