Gr 3-6–A gentle book about nature and change, this work combines elements of scientific informational picture books and self-help works with philosophical quotations and stunning illustrations to emphasize the inevitability of change. The author covers several “changes” that occur in nature, such as seasons, evolution, life cycles, and much more, in short paragraphs and and blocks of texts. These are accompanied by visual representations, such as diagrams and sidebars. Quotes from different artists and celebrities help make this volume feel fresh and inspirational. This title would be well used by counselors, psychologists, teachers, and librarians who want to help students struggling through life changes.
VERDICT A fantastic purchase for any upper elementary or middle school library that is sure to please a wide variety of readers.
