BEAUTIFUL!

Written in rhyming couplets, the text provides a calm, soothing portrayal of a wetland. The artwork is colorful, realistic, and completely fills each page. The artist proves that nature illustrations can have strong appeal to children without having to be anthropomorphic. At the end of the book, there is an excellent primer on the animals and plants shown in the book. I have purchased multiple copies of this book, as well as others from the same publisher, to be placed in the libraries of my local elementary and preschools.
