In this book, impossible creatures (one can perceive as atoms, molecules, or minerals) playfully deliver computer codes, with an underlying notion that everything is connected: in nature, materials, sciences, techniques, computing, and the arts. In this innovative space, these characters introduce programming. While coding is intertwined into simple facts, \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eNature Appreciation\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e shows ways we appreciate nature, thus, helping us learn in a playful, nonjudgmental way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKnowledge is divided into subjects and classes at schools, colleges, then universities. Facts, processes, and rules cannot be separated. They are all connected: biochemistry, product materiality changes from matter to energy and vice versa, and conversion of one state into another.
