"How to Be an Explorer of the World: Portable Life Museum" by Keri Smith


How to explore your world, without really having to go anywhere. This book encourages you to pay attention to the ordinary, the overlooked and the everday. Look in corners, around your house, and up to the sky. Notice patterns, similarities, differences and how things work together. Smith offers prompts for cataloging and contemplating our world, our place in it, and how our perception is constantly evolving and shifting. Excellent exercises for budding artists and/or creative types. Good scavenger type hunts for younger, and good meditative, mindful exercises for older. Fun, quirky read for everyone.
