With bright collage illustrations and a simple, lyrical text, acclaimed author-illustrator Toni Yuly invites readers to celebrate our relationship to the natural world.Eye-catching, perspective-shifting illustrations pair beautifully with simple text to embrace a child's world...Bold colors frame but do not overtake the gentle story, and the composition of each spread deserves close attention—Yuly carefully balances white space and color and zooms out from macro focus to wide angle to demonstrate scale and perspective. A story that ends as it begins—colorful, peaceful, and just right for the very youngest naturalists.\u003cbr\u003e—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)\u003cb\u003eToni Yuly\u003c\/b\u003e is the creator of the picture books \u003ci\u003eThank You, Bees; The Jelly Bean Tree; Cat Nap; Night Owl; \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eEarly Bird. \u003c\/i\u003eAfter many years as a librarian, she now dedicates herself to designing, painting, and writing all day.
