As seen in Authority Magazine:
"After seeing animals and birds in this new way — as individuals, with families and lives — you can’t unsee it. Your viewpoint has been forever changed. And that’s powerful.”

"Uplift joins Watership Down, The Secret of NIMH, and other stories that use animal lives to illuminate human concerns. Thoughtful, elegantly written, and quietly radical, it encourages us to look at the natural world with renewed wonder. Mann’s story doesn’t just take flight, it soars."

What Birds Teach Us About the Value of Family and Friendship
"Jessica Mann's book is a must-read for appreciating how birds sense their world. A compelling and moving story with an important message."

"Reading like part ancient myth and part experimental, UPLIFT is a great read for a cold winter's night."

The place for meaningful stories about our natural world and humanity’s connection with it. With a large book database, spotlights, interviews, and more.
"Why is it that so few writers of contemporary literary fiction put nonhumans at the center of their novels?
Jessica Mann set out to change all that."
