The wind is whispering … what is it saying?
The birds are singing … do you know that song?
There is a shooting star … did you make a wish?
Magical moments happen when we take time to be still, to see and to listen. In a world immersed in electronics and telecommunications, often children are uncomfortable or fearful in the quiet. The girl in this story connects with all the elements of nature around her by being still and listening to the subtle wisdom of life. Illustrated with stunning oil on canvas, the book can be treasured for its sweet message and original artistry. Teachers have employed this book to demonstrate the concept of personification.
