The perfect gift for a loved one or for yourself, For Small Creatures Such as We is part memoir, part guidebook, and part social history, a luminous celebration of Earth's marvels that require no faith in order to be believed.
Sasha Sagan was raised by secular parents, the astronomer Carl Sagan and the writer and producer Ann Druyan. They taught her that the natural world and vast cosmos are full of profound beauty, and that science reveals truths more wondrous than any myth or fable.
When Sagan herself became a mother, she began her own hunt for the natural phenomena behind our most treasured occasions-from births to deaths, holidays to weddings, anniversaries, and more-growing these roots into a new set of rituals for her young daughter that honor the joy and significance of each experience without relying on a religious framework.
As Sagan shares these rituals, For Small Creatures Such as We becomes a moving tribute to a father, a newborn daughter, a marriage, and the natural world-a celebration of life itself, and the power of our families and beliefs to bring us together.

FAMILY'S ENDURING LEGACY: Carl Sagan is still beloved and Ann Druyan is currently the writer, producer, and director of Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, viewed by more than 400 million people in 181 countries. Warner Bros. is developing a feature film about how Carl and Ann fell in love during the making of NASA's Voyager Interstellar Record.

UNTAPPED MARKET: There are 56 million American adults who call themselves atheists, agnostics, and or just "nothing in particular."

UNIQUELY FEMININE APPROACH: The majority of people who write about being secular are men. With her personal background, gorgeous prose, and uplifting, warm message, Sagan is a needed and welcoming voice.
