a foamy spittlebug, a leaping grasshopper,
bright milkweed, a quick fox, and a cruising hawk.


Reviews:
From Kirkus Reviews, Starred
"Combining striking illustrations, evocative poems
that do double duty as riddles and lucid prose commentary, this venture into the natural world stands out for both its beauty and its unusual approach."
