For Mother's Day, we explore the idea of what it means to raise children and nurture life. In her new book, Mother, Creature, Kin: What We Learn from Nature's Mothers in a Time of Unraveling, essayist Chelsea Steinauer-Scudder asks: "What can other-than-human creatures teach us about mothering, belonging, caregiving, loss, and resiliency?" She writes about living beings—whether owls, whales, or plants—and how we all share a need to protect our natural world.
