"Your time on Earth has just begun," begins this tribute to the beauties of nature. "Take in the sights. Take in the sound. Take in the scents that excite and astound." As a girl takes a nature walk, she examines all the wonders to be found in the natural world, from the intricate beauty of a spider's web to the enormous moose who accepts an offered apple. She and her pup find treasures everywhere they look, even in the dirt, where they find worms, bones, and fossils! And when the day is done, there are the glittering stars to admire, far up in the night sky.
From the treasure of flowers to the mystery of insects, this lyrical book encourages children to explore the natural world around them and to be grateful for all that surrounds them. With jewel-like artwork, every page is a treasure for children just born or exploring the world full of possibilities we all share.
