“If a child is to keep his inborn sense of wonder,” wrote Rachel Carson, “he needs the companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with him the joy, excitement, and mystery of the world we live in.” Rachel herself had such a mother, and this picture book tells how their shared love of nature helped her grow up to change the world.
