Below is an excerpt from the article:
Interviewer: “What’s the most interesting thing you learned from a book recently?”

I’m longing to know more about the amazing ecosystem of a forest canopy. Meg Lowman recently gave me a copy of “The Arbornaut.” So far I’ve only read the prologue and Chapter 1, but I wrote about her amazing discoveries in my last book, “Seeds of Hope.” And here I might add that I learned so many things, so much that was new to me, about the amazing vegetable kingdom when researching that book.”
