What Do You Do with an Idea by Kobi Yamada

A great book for children and adult alike and a great conceptual picture book that can be used to foster confidence in creative thinking and perseverence in withstanding criticism from others.

Life and I a Story about Death by Elizabth Helland Larsen and Mrine Schneider

A simple but beautifully poetic children's book encompassing the very natural but also bittersweet process that Death is always not far from where Life resides. A marvelous find.

Star Child by Claire A. Nivola

This book was so sweet and thoughtfully written and I want to buy it for every new baby I meet-- it is truly a fine read and a wonderful viewpoint of our natural life plan.

On Meadowview Street by Henry Cole

I really thought this was a great book to find. I love how the story is simple to read and the pictures are straightforward but it is a beautiful story of how a lawn is transformed through the purposeful and mindful actions of a thoughtful little girl. This has been very inspiring book for me in the transformation of our front yard into an edible garden space.

Tokyo Digs a Garden by Jon-Erik Lappano

I really enjoyed this book for the stunning visuals and the overwhelm of nature that occurs when a little boy and his grandfather are wisely haphazard with the planting of some magic beans in their tiny plot in the city. Throughout the pages the reader is taken through a magical transformation whereupon the busy city once again becomes the wild oasis it once was- the place the grandfather can only recall.
