Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Together Miss Mamie and Lucy plant a paperwhite bulb. Through the long, dark winter days they nurture the bulb and wait for it to bring a sign of spring. In the waiting hours, they also cultivate a gentle relationship between young and old, as sweet and lovely as the delicate white narcissus flowers that bloom from a simple bulb. As she did in Rabbit’s Bedtime, Nancy Elizabeth Wallace has combined just the right amount of thoughtful text with lovingly prepared cut-paper illustrations to make a book that is at once sweet and poignant. Review:'\"A delightful read.\" —School Library Journal, starred review (10/00)' Review:'\"The story works on two levels, celebrating both the wonders of nature and the pleasures of a loving intergenerational friendship.\" —Publishers Weekly (9/11/00)' Review:'\"This is a neatly put-together tale that should warm up some winter storytimes.\" —The Bulletin (11/00)' Synopsis:Lucy and Miss Mamie while away the long hours of winter in various ways while waiting for a paperwhite bulb to grow and bring them spring. Full-color illustrations. About the AuthorThe Sun, the Moon, and the Stars is a unique collection of poems gathered by cut-paper artist Nancy Elizabeth Wallace. Opening the pages of this beautiful book is like stepping through the gates of a well-loved garden. Using her tiny scissors, her love of nature, and her great sense for the world of children, she invites us to explore this playful and lovely constellation of poems with her.
