About the Book
The Caldecott Honor author/illustrator team that brought readers "The Desert Is Theirs" and "The Way to Start a Day" returns with this tale of truly listening to the world around us. In "The Other Way to Listen," a young boy is eager to learn and an old man is happy to share his wisdom. Full color.Book Synopsis
With a lot of practice, a young boy learns from his old teacher how to listen to the sounds and songs of the natural world. When you know "the other way to listen," you can hear the wild-flower seed bursting open. You hear rocks murmuring and hills singing, and it seems like the most natural thing in the world. Of course, it takes a lot of practice, and you can't be in a hurry. Most people never hear these things at all. This is the story of an old man who had a special way of hearing and of a child who hoped to learn his secrets. Byrd Baylor and Peter Parnall have combined their unique, award-winning talents to celebrate the world of nature.Dimensions (Overall): 9.96 Inches (H) x 7.74 Inches (W) x .13 Inches (D)
