I Heard the Willow Weep

Lush, dreamlike illustrations by Margaret Brandt illuminate Albert's poem, "I Heard the Willow Weep." Author and artist introduce young readers to some of today's most pressing environmental problems, from too much trash to the destruction of rainforests. Part One ends with quiet confidence that with determination, we can restore beauty and health to our earth. In Part Two, the author engages children by offering projects and activities that they will want to try, fascinating EcoFacts, and practical suggestions on how to take better care of our home planet.
