概要

Brought to you by Penguin.

How do we raise children in a climate emergency?

What should we teach them - and what kind of future are we preparing them for?

Ben Rawlence began writing to his eldest daughter before she was born, trying to understand what it means to bring a child into a world facing ecological breakdown. Over the next twelve years, these letters – written to his two daughters as they grow – chart one father’s attempt to live with the central contradiction of our age: raising children within a system that threatens all life, including our own.

By turns moving and funny, and always bracingly honest, Think Like a Forest explores love, fear and responsibility in perilous times. Rawlence finds the answers might lie in learning to see the world again through the eyes of a child so that we may embrace interdependence and regain our place in nature. To think like a forest, he shows us, may be the key to how we parent, how we live, and even whether we have a future on our planet at all.

‘Beautiful and thought-provoking’ Cal Flyn

‘A delightful and important book. Every parent should read this’ Merlin Hanbury-Tenison

'A gift, not just for the author’s daughters, but for all of us who want to replace ecocide anxiety with the glimmerings of a better future’ Sophy Roberts

‘A thoughtful, tender way to make a map of new and frightening territory’ Jay Griffiths

批評家のレビュー

Climate change is an intergenerational issue: an existential crisis we are bequeathing to our descendants. Ben Rawlence's letters to his daughters grapple with questions of injustice and adaptation - but also celebrate the joy and hope and wonder of small children. Beautiful and thought-provoking (Cal Flyn)
A delightful and important book. Every parent should read this and consider it as a handrail for climate conscious and compassionate 21st-century parenting. Having loved every page I have now begun writing letters to my own young daughters to emulate Ben’s piercing insight and heartfelt example (Merlin Hanbury-Tenison)
How do you find the right path when no one has come this way before? This book is a thoughtful, tender way to make a map of new and frightening territory. (Jay Griffiths)
Humane, honest and painfully true, Rawlence’s letters to his daughters neatly encapsulate the systemic nature of our current crisis of values, while also shedding valuable light on where we might go and how we might thrive if we can only find a way to change them. (Owen Sheers)
Both a moving elegy for our suffering planet, and a persuasive call to arms to the next generation of possible changemakers. I loved this book, its threads perfectly calibrated with a masterful simplicity of tone and epistolary directness. A gift, not just for the author’s daughters, but for all of us who want to replace ecocide anxiety with the glimmerings of a better future. Rawlence is too rigorous a journalist to suggest this will be easy, and too honest a writer to be anything but convincing. (Sophy Roberts)
As moving as it is illuminating… a book like no other, a story told through letters written by a loving father to his young daughters as they grow up in an increasingly uncertain world. (Mark Lynas)
These are beautifully written, endearing and hopeful letters which made me laugh and cry... It’s a book for all ages about conversations we all need to have -- and if you don’t know how to start them, there’s a very helpful manual at the back! (Jane Davidson, author of #FUTUREGEN: Lessons from a Small Country)
A great taboo of our time - how to talk with our children about the broken world they’re growing up into - is coming to an end. This book marks a notable moment in that necessary transformation. The sensitivity with which Ben Rawlence approaches the topic, in these letters, is lovely to behold. Not least, because he sets out here how this is very much about listening to the young, too. (Emeritus Prof. Rupert Read, author of PARENTS FOR A FUTURE)
