A HAPPY HABITAT FOR WILD FRIENDS IN MARGARET RENKL'S DEBUT PICTURE BOOK THE WEEDY GARDEN

Описание: If you were a hungry squirrel in the weedy garden, where would you find an acorn? If you were a cottontail rabbit, where would you hide your bunnies? And if you were a child, sitting still and listening, what would the weedy garden say to you?

THE WEEDY GARDEN
With evergreen themes of patience and respect for the natural world, The Weedy Garden the debut picture book from acclaimed and New York Times bestselling author Margaret Renkl invites readers to observe and wonder about the various inhabitants in the vibrant ecosystem of a wildlife-friendly backyard garden.

Margaret Renkl writes beautifully about our changing natural world, asking questions that draw young readers deeper and deeper into the garden, inviting observation and conversation along the way. Each page turn introduces a new plant or animal friend, buzzing and dancing with quiet wonder. The fine artist Billy Renkl, Margaret Renkl’s brother and frequent collaborator, brings the weedy garden to life through his signature mixed-media collages. Includes backmatter with more information about the residents of the garden, eco-friendly gardening tips, and instructions on how to make your own collage art project at home or in school.
