Acknowledgments

My whole heart to Miles Mingo, who took long walks with me while I was writing this book wherein we figured out the shapes to both of our artistic projects. Spectacular collaboration. Unforeseen joy. Listen to children and young adults. They reflect whole galaxies.

Oceans of thanks to Rayhané Sanders, Laura Brown, and Calvert Morgan, without whom this book would simply not exist. Thank you for believing in my weird words.

Research mega-thanks (and love) to my brilliant brother-in-law David Craig, ornithologist and biology wizard, for helping me understand being.

Respect and thanks to fellow writer and artist Liz Asch both for her help on early versions of this book and for her undying support, which I needed so very badly when the dark came.

And to the love of my life, Andy Mingo, like a new world from which the everything is always becoming because of the surprising helix of love.
