Chloe Dalton's Raising Hare chronicles her unexpected journey of caring for an orphaned leveret on her remote Irish farm. More than an animal memoir, the book becomes a meditation on wildness, domesticity, and the complex ethics of human-animal relationships. Dalton explores the tension between nurturing and allowing freedom, revealing how caring for another creature can transform our understanding of ourselves.

WHY WE PICKED IT: Because sometimes the smallest lives teach us the most about letting go.
