U.S. Poet Laureate Ada Limón has a keen eye for the natural world.
This poem pulses with the joyful energy of a fox bounding through backyards, piecing together a living in his own way. Paired with lush illustrations by Gaby D’Alessandro, this picture book brings Limón’s work to a new generation.
Comes with its streak of red / flashing across the lawn, squirrel / bound and bouncing . . .
