Immersed
in a child's eye view of the world, the reader feels the child's joy
in nature - and then, dream borne, goes forth and becomes part of the
animal world she sees. This flight of fancy sings with a quiet, true
exuberance. All Around Me I See is an opportunity to allow children
to love the earth first - just what they need to do, before we ask them
to save it.
Prof. David Sobel, Antioch New EnglandCo-Director
of the Center for Place-based Education
While
finding meaning in things occurring in nature, this book captures the

when all things are possible and the best is yet to come.
