Rachel Carson

From a small town in Pennsylvania came a little girl who saw the magic in spring fog and heard the ocean's song in her heart. This was also the girl who one day would become the groundbreaking environmental author of Silent Spring. In Rachel Carson, young readers will experience all the enchantment of nature as seen through the eyes of the budding scientist. Thomas Locker's lyrical paintings re-create important scenes in her development and are accompanied by memorable quotes from Carson, together with Joseph Bruchac's poetically rendered biography.
