Be Still, Life

56 pp. | Enchanted Lion | May, 2018 | Trade ISBN 978-1-59270-257-2 $17.95
(3) K-3 Poetic and contemplative yet sometimes silly, a hand-lettered text with rhymes and near-rhymes urges readers to "Be Still" and promises extraordinary sensual perceptions: seeing a shadow grow, hearing leaves sway, feeling a heart beating, smelling rain, and more. The kid-appealing illustrations--with simple stylized shapes, bold colors, and thick black outlines--further encourage imagination and observation.
