A New York Times bestseller National Book Award finalist Sy Montgomery reflects on the personalities and quirks of 13 animals--her friends--who have profoundly affected her in this stunning, poetic, and life-affirming memoir featuring illustrations by Rebecca Green. Understanding someone who belongs to another species can be transformative. No one knows this better than author, naturalist, and adventurer Sy Montgomery. To research her books, Sy has traveled the world and encountered some of the planet's rarest and most beautiful animals. From tarantulas to tigers, Sy's life continually intersects with and is informed by the creatures she meets. This restorative memoir reflects on the personalities and quirks of thirteen animals--Sy's friends--and the truths revealed by their grace. It also explores vast themes: the otherness and sameness of people and animals; the various ways we learn to love and become empathetic; how we find our passion; how we create our families; coping with loss and despair; gratitude; forgiveness; and most of all, how to be a good creature in the world.Binding Type: Hardcover

Still soft after multiple washes
With a kid, removable cases are a must. These have lasted countless washes and are still soft and comfortable. Love the color and the process. Experienced zero smell, easy to install, and fit the inserts perfectly.

Just the cases but very soft and cute
They are great quality material. Comes with two cases, not the pillows though. Very soft and look nice with almost everything. Good value and fits standard square pillows great.

Super cute
Got these “pillow cases” for our bed as accessory pillows. They are so soft and the light pink is beautiful. I have the matching blanket which is amazing as well. You do have to buy pillows for the inside. Remember when buying insert pillows they should be two inches bigger than the case. For example if the case is 18” your pillow should be 20”. That ensures a full puffy look.

Excellent quality; fit may be tight
The quality of these covers is very good. The feel is soft and warm. The color is rich. They wash easily and well. My only problem is the fit. My 15” throw pillows are overstuffed, and they won’t fit in these covers. If your pillows are not overstuffed, I highly recommend these.
