Wonders of Nature (Little Golden Book)

by Jane Werner Watson

Eloise Wilkin (Illustrator)

“Isn't it a wonder that out in the pond, smooth wiggly tadpoles lose their tails and grow legs, and turn into frogs? And that fuzzy caterpillars weave silken cocoons around themselves and go to sleep, then wake up as pretty moths or butterflies?”

It’s a rare nonfiction book that’s also a simple, beautiful poem. In this gorgeous Little Golden Book from 1957, Eloise Wilkin’s stunning and realistic artwork is accompanied by gentle text that brings an awe of nature to the youngest readers.

This one is included in the [b:Eloise Wilkin Stories|183731|Eloise Wilkin Stories|Eloise Wilkin|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1320408837l/183731._SX50_.jpg|177563]. I read this many years ago with my oldest when she was a toddler. I'm sure we have read it in the years on between. Right now, I've read it again to my current toddler ( #redmermaidwarrior) and it was a perfect little read. A great follow up to reading [b:My Little Golden Book About God|1763874|My Little Golden Book About God|Jane Werner Watson|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1366106206l/1763874._SX50_.jpg|723350]. Beautiful illustrations and a wonderful message about the joy of God's creation all around us.
