"Like all self-respecting children, my brother Robert and I tried to dig a hole to China in our backyard. We didn't get there, but we did dig an impressive pit." So begins the column titled, "Box Turtles, Hooligans, and Love, Sweet Love," which then takes readers on a romp through Dansak's unorthodox childhood before culminating in a romance that feels predestined. Along the way, she shares information and updates on box turtles. Readers can expect to be entertained and informed as Dansak weaves hard science with her unique style of storytelling, resulting in columns that are as delightful as they are digestible. After reading, you are guaranteed to have fodder for conversation at all your cocktail parties. Whether you are an ardent nature lover or just an appreciator of a good story, this book will find a place in your heart.
