Editorial Reviews

This first in the See to Learn series is ideal for starting a dialogue about the natural world both at home or in the classroom . . . that will lead children to form observations and questions of their own.

Kirkus Reviews

[T]his beautiful nonfiction picture book will be a useful jumping-off point for inquiry and land-based pedagogy. The illustrations are lush . . .
