'Diary of a Young Naturalist' chronicles the turning of 15-year-old Dara McAnulty's world. From spring and through a year in his home patch in Northern Ireland, Dara spent the seasons writing. These vivid, evocative and moving diary entries about his connection to wildlife and the way he sees the world are raw in their telling. Diagnosed with Asperger's as a child, it was nature writing in his diary that helped Dara survive in an oft confusing world. This chronicles Dara's intense connection with the natural world, and his life juggling exams, friendships and campaigning. 'Dara is an extraordinary voice and vision: brave, poetic, ethical, lyrical, strong enough to have made him heard and admired from a young age.' Robert Macfarlane
