How, she asks, can we learn from Indigenous wisdom and the plant world to reimagine what we value most? Our economy is rooted in scarcity, competition, and the hoarding of resources, and we have surrendered our values to a system that actively harms what we love. Meanwhile, the serviceberry's relationship with the natural world is an embodiment of reciprocity, interconnectedness, and gratitude. The tree distributes its wealth -- its abundance of sweet, juicy berries -- to meet the needs of its natural community. And this distribution ensures its own survival. As Kimmerer explains, 'Serviceberries show us another model, one based upon reciprocity, where wealth comes from the quality of your relationships, not from the illusion of self-sufficiency.'" --]]></description><link>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2244397</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2244397</guid><category><![CDATA[LPRINT]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kimmerer, Robin Wall]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2244397067</comments><format>LPRINT</format><subtitle>Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781420520026/MC.GIF&amp;client=austinpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Wild Robot]]></title><description><![CDATA[The epic adventure follows the journey of a robot, Rozzum unit 7134, 'Roz' for short, that is shipwrecked on an uninhabited island and must learn to adapt to the harsh surroundings, gradually building relationships with the animals on the island and becoming the adoptive parent of an orphaned gosling.]]></description><link>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2247080</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2247080</guid><category><![CDATA[DVD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2247080067</comments><format>DVD</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=/MC.GIF&amp;client=austinpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=&amp;upc=191329267004</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Wild Robot]]></title><description><![CDATA[The epic adventure follows the journey of a robot, Rozzum unit 7134, 'Roz' for short, that is shipwrecked on an uninhabited island and must learn to adapt to the harsh surroundings, gradually building relationships with the animals on the island and becoming the adoptive parent of an orphaned gosling.]]></description><link>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2247073</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2247073</guid><category><![CDATA[BLURAY]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2247073067</comments><format>BLURAY</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=/MC.GIF&amp;client=austinpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=&amp;upc=191329266724</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Camp Time in California]]></title><description><![CDATA["When the magic tree house whisks Jack and Annie back in time, they land in the tallest tree in Yosemite, California where they join nature conservationist, John Muir, and US President Teddy Roosevelt on a historic trip through the woods"]]></description><link>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2229641</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2229641</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Osborne, Mary Pope]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2229641067</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593177495/MC.GIF&amp;client=austinpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Alyte]]></title><description><![CDATA[A sudden roaring noise rips through the twilight. When the silence returns, a father toad is left lying on the pavement. Gathering his last ounces of strength, he carries his eggs to the salvation of a nearby pond-and from the only unharmed egg hatches an orphan tadpole, Alyte. Barely born and already a survivor, Alyte is forced to escape from birds, bears, and other gods of the river. Along the way, however, he encounters new friends in nature, each of whom teaches him about the world in their own way, awakening him to all of its beauties. From creator Jérémie Moreau, Alyte confronts the often violent, unforgiving nature of the world we live in-as close to us as it is invisible-with the notion of resistance as an act of survival.]]></description><link>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2278921</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2278921</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Moreau, Jérémie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2278921067</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781990252471/MC.GIF&amp;client=austinpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I Was the Sunshine]]></title><description><![CDATA["A breathtaking Classic Board Book about the relationships we share with each other and nature from New York Times bestselling storytellers Julie Fogliano and Loren Long"--]]></description><link>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2274063</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2274063</guid><category><![CDATA[BOARD_BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Fogliano, Julie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2274063067</comments><format>BOARD_BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798347103454/MC.GIF&amp;client=austinpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Very Hungry Caterpillar's Nature Walk]]></title><description><![CDATA[Look for various animals on each spread while on a nature walk with The Very Hungry Caterpillar.]]></description><link>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2227012</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2227012</guid><category><![CDATA[BOARD_BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[DeGennaro, Gabriella]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2227012067</comments><format>BOARD_BK</format><subtitle>A Search-and-find Book</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593752067/MC.GIF&amp;client=austinpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Backyard Bird Chronicles]]></title><description><![CDATA["In 2016, author Amy Tan grew overwhelmed by the state of the world: Hatred and misinformation became a daily presence on social media, and the country felt more divisive than ever.

And yet hope has never been more desperately needed. In this urgent book, Jane Goodall, the world's most famous living naturalist, and Douglas Abrams, the internationally bestselling co-author of The Book of Joy, explore through intimate and thought-provoking dialogue one of the most sought after and least understood elements of human nature: hope. In The Book of Hope, Jane focuses on her "Four Reasons for Hope": The Amazing Human Intellect, The Resilience of Nature, The Power of Young People, and The Indomitable Human Spirit. Drawing on decades of work that has helped expand our understanding of what it means to be human and what we all need to do to help build a better world, The Book of Hope touches on vital questions, including: How do we stay hopeful when everything seems hopeless? How do we cultivate hope in our children? What is the relationship between hope and action? Filled with moving and inspirational stories and photographs from Jane's remarkable career, The Book of Hope is a deeply personal conversation with one of the most beloved figures in the world today. While discussing the experiences that shaped her discoveries and beliefs, Jane tells the story of how she became a messenger of hope, from living through World War II to her years in Gombe to realizing she had to leave the forest to travel the world in her role as an advocate for environmental justice. And for the first time, she shares her profound revelations about her next, and perhaps final, adventure. The second book in the Global Icons Series--which launched with the instant classic The Book of Joy with His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu--The Book of Hope is a rare and intimate look not only at the nature of hope but also into the heart and mind of a woman who revolutionized how we view the world around us and has spent a lifetime fighting for our future. There is still hope, and this book will help guide us to it"--]]></description><link>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2164236</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2164236</guid><category><![CDATA[LPRINT]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Goodall, Jane]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2164236067</comments><format>LPRINT</format><subtitle>A Survival Guide for Trying Times</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781432894283/MC.GIF&amp;client=austinpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Is A River Alive?]]></title><description><![CDATA[An "exploration of an ancient, urgent idea: that rivers are living beings who should be recognized as such in imagination and law.

A member of the nomadic Evenki tribe, who traverse the forested mountains of China's eastern edge with herds of reindeer, she tells the tale of her life to the rain and fire, a life lived in close communion with nature at its most beautiful and cruel. Over the course of the twentieth century, her world is pushed to the margins of empire and industrialization. But holding steadfast against the fray of Chinese, Japanese, and Russian nation-building and resource extraction is the elder's abiding and tender attention to her people's core relationships-human, animal, spiritual, environmental-which in itself becomes an act of resistance. An illuminating translation by Bruce Humes-with an introduction by Diane Wilson, author of The Seed Keeper-The Last Quarter of the Moon renders an Evenki experience of interdependence and reciprocity with the natural world. Wilderness is infused with domestic life and spiritual intervention: reindeer herding and ice fishing, Shamanic songs and rites, and tallies of marriages, births, and deaths. Contending with the preservation of tradition and legacy alongside the threat of progress and displacement, acclaimed author Chi Zijian depicts lives that resist the march of modernization, speaking profoundly to the real endangerment of Indigenous communities and knowledge across the world.
