In NYC tomorrow? Come see a panel for the PEN World Voices Festival. At the Public Theater, I’ll be talking bonobos, Loree Griffin Burns will be talking bees, and Padma Venkatraman will be talking the Andaman Islands. (Official topic is how nature is represented in children’s literature. Unofficial topics will be quite varied—these are so very fun co-panelists!)...

Pleased to be part of @thereadingzone ‘s new web series, about integrating science into English curricula! I answer a couple questions, about why bonobos don’t like men and whether it’s moral to worry about animals in a country with such a brutal human conflict.
