Sobre IBD

Small Gifts by author Stephen Evans is a collection of sketches exploring the diminutive wonders that share our world. From the abundant ecosystem of an azalea bush, the lessons offered by an invasion of cicadas, or the titanic struggle of a bug climbing a blade of grass, the author encourages us to be attentive to the ephemeral life that surrounds us, and to find joy in its fragility, diversity, and beauty.
