When You Breathe

"What happens when you breathe? In this beautiful book, breath--the very air, stardust, the grand molecules of the universe--blossoms in the upside-down tree in your rising chest, animating and enlivening you. And when you breathe out, you send your song out into the world."--Provided by publisher.

A poetic and visually breathtaking look at what happens inside your body when you breathe

What happens when you breathe? In this beautiful book, breath-the very air, stardust, the grand molecules of the universe-blossoms in the upside-down tree in your rising chest, animating and enlivening you. And when you breathe out, you send your song out into the world.

When You Breathe by Diana Farid beautifully intertwines science with art, illustrating how our breath connects us to the larger ecosystem. The book’s metaphors invite readers to see humans as integral parts of the natural world, rather than separate from it. This unique blend of poetry and biology creates an engaging perspective on our interconnectedness with nature.
