Journey into the wild world of Mother Earth in this enchanting poetry collection.
Sigh as a mother wolf teaches her cub how to howl. Laugh with bamboozled berries and a ruby-wonderful beet. Feel the thrill of Tyranno’s terrifying tale and play with ten on-the-run haiku mice.
Your imagination will soar as a hullabaloo of creatures and plants, moon, sun and stars make their way word by word and picture by fantastical picture into your heart.
Zaro Weil lives in southern France with her husband, two sheepdogs, alongside a host of birds, insects, badgers, wild boars, crickets, donkeys, goats, hares and loads more.
She has been a lot of things – dancer, theatre director, actress, poet, playwright, educator, quilt collector, historian, author and publisher. Her poetry for children has appeared in many anthologies. Zaro’s Cherry Moon won the CLiPPA Award for outstanding children’s poetry in 2020.
