(3) K-3 Illustrated by John Clapp. Addy's lyrical text traces the changes the millennia have brought to a Wisconsin field, where a modern-day farmer unearths a Civil War button, an ancient Indian arrowhead, and an Ice Age bone. The artwork--saturated watercolors flanked by soft pencil sketches of thematic motifs on double-page spreads--complements the contemplative tone. Together they quietly, evocatively put time in perspective.
