I got a signed book from an book author😱🥰!
Yes, indeed, how cool is that? I actually got a signed book from a real book author🥰!
You can watch a video of me opening my package and checking out the book here on my YouTube🥰.
Soooo coool! A while ago me and my pet human (aka dad) where at one of my favorite thrift stores and on our way out we met a very nice lady, which had some questions about me🥰
After a bit of conversation she told me and dad that she actually wrote a book called Dichter Bij De Natuur which is Dutch for ‘Closer to Nature‘🥰
In that book she also wrote a section about a personal meeting with a pigeon she had , after reading her segment about him, he seemed like a super nice fella😊.
She asked if she could send me a copy of her book and of course dad said: Sure, no problem🥰.
So far Dad has already read a few sections to me 🥰 while I was sitting and listening on pigeon my bed.
This book shares years of research from the author Agnes van den Berg (who is actually an psychologist and a real professor!😱🥰) about the calming and health effects from nature, she also takes it a bit further by diving into the spiritual side of it in a “no-nonsense way” (to quote Agnes her book😊).
If you are interested in the book (and you can read Dutch, because the book is in Dutch 😉), you can get your copy via Vonk Uitgevers
The illustrations are made by @lotteklaver.eu (on Instagram)🥰
Note: In my video (and the blog category) I did captioned/listed it as ‘sponsored product placement’ because I got this book for free as a gift from the Author, HOWEVER there was/is no expectation that I would show it on my socials or website🥰 She just gifted it to me due to the talk we had about animals, nature and me🥰. However, because it was a free gift I did want to be fully transparent and list it as sponsored item 🥰.
