About Wild Things

Wild Things is the amazing tale of Donna Matrazzo's coming of age as a grassroots activist and a behind-the-scenes look at the evolution of Portland, Oregon's renowned greenspaces movement by somebody who was there from the start. It is a wonderful story that will inspire a new generation of activists, wherever they may live, to get involved and protect the wild things and wild places that surround them.

-Bob Sallinger, Conservation Director, Audubon Society of Portland

The planet needs more friends like Donna Matrazzo and it needs more books like this one, which remind us that we're all quite capable of making big and useful change.
