Nature's Surprises
by
Wendy Barrick Rhead
A grandfather and his grandchild find a plant growing in an unlikely place. How did this plant flourish in such a strange location? Encouraging his grandchild’s curiosity, the grandfather shows that when faced with a challenge, nature, from the smallest plant to the largest animal, perseveres and finds a way to achieve its goals. Nature’s Surprises is a remarkable intergenerational story with dramatic illustrations. This story demonstrates resilience displayed in nature, including in humans. By being curious and asking questions, children learn perseverance and determination.
