Coyote’s Wild Home (2023) is Barbara Kingsolver’s picture book for young readers, bringing her love of the natural world to a new audience.
The book follows a coyote through the desert ecosystem, showing the plants and animals that share its habitat. Kingsolver wrote the text with the same attention to landscape and ecology that fills her adult fiction, but pitched for a much younger reader. The picture book format lets the desert environment come through visually alongside her words.
Kingsolver has written about the American Southwest and rural landscapes throughout her career, and Coyote’s Wild Home distills those themes into a story accessible to children. It is her only book for this age group so far.
