The book is beautifully illustrated by the author, and is not only a valuable learning tool for beginning and younger readers, but is entertaining and thought-provoking as well. ![]() The child is from the city, but the time she spends with her grandmother teaches her about the seasons of the Southern Hemisphere, the beauty-and the transience-of the rainforest, the plant, animal and insect life of this part of the world and of the cycles of nature, which are gently observed and explained by the child’s wise and good “Granny.” This is the charming story of a girl and the year she spends with her grandmother on a farm at the edge of the South American Atlantic Rainforest. ![]()
