Description: Listening to Crickets A Story about Rachel Carson A Creative Minds Biography by Candice F. Ransom illustrated by Shelly O. Haas From the time she was a very young girl, Rachel Carson felt a bond with nature. Growing up in Pennsylvania, she spent hours exploring meadows and woods, dreaming of seeing the ocean. As Rachel grew older, she combined her gift for writing with her love of nature, producing award-winning books about the sea. But her best-known achievement was the publication of Silent Spring, an account of the dangerous effects of pesticides on plants and animals. With Silent Spring, Rachel helped create a movement to ban these harmful chemicals. Her findings helped to assure that future generations would be able to dream about the ocean and listen to crickets. This 64-page softcover is in brand new condition with all pages crisp, clean, and sturdily bound; even the cover is nice and smooth.GIFT QUALITY You won't be disappointed! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I'm listing MANY more children's books (and other items)!
