CBC Showcase: Women's History Month and National Poetry Month
One of America's foremost poets for young people describes the ongoing cycle of life.
by Aileen Fisher, illustrated by Mique Moriuchi
One of America's foremost poets for young people describes the ongoing cycle of life. A seed sprouts and is quickly devoured by a bug. Then a bright green frog appears and makes a meal of the bug. And the story goes on from the bug to snake to hawk to hunter . . . until a seed begins to sprout. This wonderful poem deftly deals with a sensitive subject and is inventively illustrated by a talented young artist.
