Translated from the Hebrew.
The original edition of this haunting book won The Israel Museum Prize for Illustration and the Hadassah Prize for Children's Literature. The textural, imaginative illustrations and open-ended story line provide a springboard for discussions of leaves, loneliness, and magic. (Miller Library Staff)
"This magical tale follows a little girl named Alona on her journey through a windswept park. As she rests under a tree to eat an apple, a golden leaf falls from the branches above."--Provided by publisher.
