The creators of Grandads Prayers of the Earth return with a look at the way everyones experiences in the world are gloriously unique. Feel the rain kiss your skin or the wind ruffle your hair. Hear the hum of a bumblebee; watch an insect skating across a pond; taste a red, ripe strawberry; whistle with a blade of grass. From award-winning author Douglas Wood and celebrated illustrator P. J. Lynch comes a moving look at the experiences that belong uniquely to us, marking our place on Earth that is ours alone. After all, who but you can remember your own memories? Wonderfully evocative of natures sensory treasures, here is a perfect gift to share with a child or to inspire loved ones of any age as they set out to create their special place in the world.
