Fifteen poems explore close encounters with animals ... and choosing to respond tenderly. Whether it's helping a hummingbird escape, respecting a bear's habitat, admiring a heron's beauty, or giving way to ants at a picnic, the human response in these poems is to do no harm, and to help whenever possible. The poems follow a seasonal progression, ending with a final poem that imagines where each animal might be on a winter night. Inspired by personal experiences, Nicholas Ruddock's poems are simply written, with a pleasing rhyme, and fun to read aloud. In the spirit of the text, Ashley Barron's cut-paper collage illustrations portray each creature with respectful realism, in environments ranging from rural and wild to urban and suburban. A delightful dip into poetry for young animal lovers!"-- $c Provided by publisher. 530 $a Issued also in electronic formats. 650 0 $a Animals $v Poetry. 650 0 $a Nature $v Poetry. 655 7 $a Poetry. 655 7 $a Animal poetry. 700 1 $a Barron, Ashley, $e illustrator. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Ruddock, Nicholas. $t This is a tiny fragile snake. $d Toronto ; Berkeley : Groundwood Books/House of Anansi Press, 2024 $z 9781773067858 $z 9781773067858 $w (OCoLC)1379801019 941 $a 4 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240524011400.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20240402011824.0 952 $l NEPC953 $d 20240401150741.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20240227010831.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F3E43FC6D53D11EE9A262BB830ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b BUPInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
