Rachel Carson’s nature-imbued youth and her courageous work to protect birds and sea life are lovingly presented in this beautifully illustrated picture biography. (Miller Library Staff)
As a child, Rachel Carson lived by the rhythms of the natural world. Spring after spring, year after year, she observed how all living things are connected. And as an adult, Rachel watched and listened as the natural world she loved so much began to fall silent. Spring After Spring traces Rachel's journey as scientist and writer, courageously speaking truth to an often hostile world through her book, and ultimately paving the way for the modern environmental movement.
Recommended for preschool (age 0-5) and primary school (age 6-12).
