For Small Creatures Such as We: Rituals for Finding Meaning in Our Unlikely World

Part memoir, part guidebook, and part social history, For Small Creatures Such as We is the first audiobook from the daughter of Carl Sagan and Ann Druyan amp;mdash; a luminous exploration of Earth's marvels that require no faith in order to be believed.

Sasha Sagan was raised by secular parents, the astronomer Carl Sagan and the writer and producer Ann Druyan. They taught her that the natural world and vast cosmos are full of profound beauty, that science reveals truths more wondrous than any myth or fable.

When Sagan herself became a mother, she began her own hunt for the natural phenomena behind our most treasured occasions amp;mdash; from births to deaths, holidays to weddings, anniversaries, and more amp;mdash; growing these roots into a new set of rituals for her young daughter that honor the joy and significance of each experience without relying on religious framework.

As Sagan shares these rituals, For Small Creatures Such as We becomes a moving tribute to a father, a newborn daughter, a marriage, and the natural world amp;mdash; a celebration of life itself, and the power of our families and beliefs to bring us together.
