DIARY OF A YOUNG NATURALIST By Dara McAnulty

This teenage author is a naturalist, conservationist and activist from Northern Ireland. His knowledge of wildlife and nature is exceptional and his writing brings to life our essential connection with the natural world.

He recounts a year in the life of a highly gifted, autistic 15 year old, who, coping with the ups and downs of daily life, has learnt to understand and appreciate the significance of the natural world around him.
