This episode of Zero to Well Read is brought to you by Thriftbooks.com.

Today on the show, we're talking about braiding sweetgrass by Robin Wall, Kimmer,

the phenomenon that is hard to find used. So you're probably going to need to find a new one.

You could do so on Thriftbooks.com. Though you can find a used copy of the original hardback, which I have never seen. I'm going to run you about 30 bucks. I'm kind of thinking about getting one myself. You can also find an addition I've never seen. There's a young adult version of braiding sweet grass. Young adult additions usually a bit shorter, kind of geared at teens. I don't know all the differences here, but if you've got a teen in your life, you think this

might be a good fit for.

That's a cool option as well.

As always, free shipping on orders of $15 or more in the United States.

And each purchase gets you closer to a free reading reward.

Go to thriftbooks.com to find your copy today.

All right. Time for the show.

this morning. Over the last few days, I've been reading it and trying to think of something smart

to say about a book that defies definitions in all kinds of ways, which of course we're going to get

into here. I think the first thing I was thinking of us, how we were here for, again, it came out

in 2013. We'll get into the publication history, but it really hit a wave in 2020 and beyond.
