In this book, we are reminded, with a light touch, that nature is both miraculous and fragile. A good part of preserving this beautiful world lies with each of us. The illustrations themselves seem to move like the wind or a flowing stream and remind us of the natural world around us. The style of the illustrations well reflect the message of the story. - Thomas E. Richner, Associate Professor of Animation at The Columbus College of Art and Design, and former Layout Artist on The Simpsons<br><br>
