Nature Book Club • The Star in the Sycamore

Posted in: Instructional

Join us for a book club chat and naturalist-led hike! March's book is “The Star in the Sycamore” by Tom Springer. Meet at the Visitor Center. The Star in the Sycamore takes readers on a journey of rare insight and local discovery. In the ecstasy of a dusk feeding frenzy, Springer catches a slew of fat bass and toothsome pike in "a little river gone wild in the city." In his love for country dogs, un-pampered on their beds of barn straw, he sees an ancient link to musky, wild pleasures that "fur babies" will never know. In his quest to learn dozens of star constellations, he reveals a striking connection between stars, trees and souls. Free | Ages: 15+, under 18 w/adult. Chippewa Nature Center, 400 South Badour Rd., Midland. 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM/ Phone: (989) 631-0830
