Abstract
Sophie is an amateur naturalist with a rare genetic gift: the ability to see a marvelous
kingdom of invisible, sentient creatures that share a vital relationship with humankind.
To record her observations, Sophie creates a personal bestiary and, as she relates
the strange abilities of these endangered beings, her tales become extraordinary meditations
on the entwined destinies of all living creatures. (cover text)
