Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A man working in his garden finds a delicate worm, a beetle in shining armor, and a leaf-green mantis and shares these treasures with his young daughter. "Lovely double-page, impressionistic oil paintings...provide a picturesque setting for this simple, straightforward description of a special parent/child outing."--School Library Journal.

About the Author

"My mother's voice filled our home with spirit and warmth," says award-winning author Joanne Ryder. "Sometimes when her friends would call, I'd answer the phone. ‘Why, you sound just like your mother,' they'd often say. And I thought that was the nicest compliment." Joanne Ryder has written many picture books for children, including My Father's Hands. She lives in Pacific Grove, California, with her husband, Laurence Yep.
