The May StoryWalk at Jane’s Garden at West Falmouth Library Is Planting a Rainbow by Lois Ehlert. Available to visit during daytime hours.
Through brilliant, textured cut paper collages, the story follows the progress of a mother and daughter in their backyard as they plant bulbs, seeds, and seedlings and nurture their growth into flowers. Bold, spare text and dazzling illustrations will inspire readers to take a closer look at the natural world and maybe even start a garden of their own.
“Young readers will love watching the garden grow.”–San Francisco Chronicle
“A dazzling celebration . . . of the garden, the power of shape and color, and the harmony of text and image.”–School Library Journal
The StoryWalk project was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, VT and developed in collaboration with the Kellogg-Hubbard Library.
