Jim Ottaviani has written a dozen graphic novels about scientists. He was Faculty Emeritus in the Museum of Comparative Zoology and Pellegrino University Professor, Emeritus at Harvard University. Wilson was the author of more than twenty books, including The Ants and On Human Nature, both of which were awarded the Pulitzer Prize. Each dynamic frame of this graphic adaptation deepens Wilson's message, renewing his call to discover and celebrate the little things of the world. Naturalist was written as an invitation – a reminder that curiosity is vital and scientific exploration is open to all of us. On every page, striking art adds immediacy and highlights the warmth and sense of humor that sets Wilson's writing apart.
His success began not with an elite education but an insatiable curiosity about Earth's wild creatures, and this new edition of Naturalist makes Wilson's work accessible for anyone who shares his passion. In this adaptation of Naturalist, vivid illustrations draw readers in to Wilson's lifelong quest to explore and protect the natural world. This graphic edition, adapted by New York Times bestselling comics writer Jim Ottaviani and illustrated by C.M.Butzer, brings Wilson's childhood and celebrated career to life through dynamic full-colour illustrations and Wilson's own lyric writing. His memoir Naturalist, called "one of the finest scientific memoirs ever written" by the Los Angeles Times, is an inspiring account of Wilson's growth as a scientist and the evolution of the fields he helped define. Wilson spent his boyhood exploring the forests and swamps of south Alabama and the Florida panhandle, collecting snakes, butterflies, and ants – the latter to become his lifelong specialty.
