The Prairie that Nature Built

2014 INDIES Finalist
Finalist, Picture Books, Early Reader (Children's)

Vibrant and dynamic two-page spreads burst with life, exuberance, and authenticity in this gorgeous overview of a prairie ecosystem. The vivid word choice of the verse—constructed with deft use of repetition and rhyme—is loaded with rich imagery. That this beautiful book manages to be simple and complex simultaneously is extraordinary. Ages four to ten.
