A collection of new poems about the natural world - both rural and urban - with underlying themes of responsibility for the world around us and wonder at creation. The poems are varied in style - from light-hearted to reflective - and explore subjects of interest to children. Some are more challenging than those in other Lion titles but they are always accessible. Teachers will appreciate the poems' exploration of words, metaphor, rhythm and sound, and the book will have lasting use in schools. A book to return to again and again with something new to discover every time.
