Octavie Wolters: You Are My Beginning, Gebunden

Klappentext

Young Harry the hare must leave home in search of spring in this breathtaking linocut picture book for children 3 and up, perfect for readers of Firefly by Robert Macfarlane.

When the icy hold of winter begins to thaw, a little hare named Harry emerges from his home on the hill. As trees rustle and birds sing, he is gripped by a desire to know where life comes from. Where does everything begin? And how can he find the source of all this life and renewal?

Mummy Hare says that all things living come from the spring--but this lies far far away to the east. So little Harry decides to venture from the safety of his home and follow the river in search of the spring. To find it he must run the same way the world turns, to the place where the sun comes up.

From the author of The Starling's Song and This Will Last Forever, this beautifully crafted picture book follows a little hare as he travels through the changing seasons, developing a deeper appreciation for the quiet beauty of the natural world and the ever-turning cycle of time.

Richly atmopsheric and evocative, You Are My Beginning is filled with beautifully intricate black & white linocut illustrations, and is a perfect book for readers aged 3+ who enjoy thoughtful, nature-inspired storytelling in the vein of Jackie Morris and Robert Macfarlane.
