Description
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.
