Once In A Lifetime Leaf is a story that has so many tangents, so many ways to turn it and think about it. For small children, reading out loud and showing the illustrations will bring the story to life. I can imagine this story being read with children at carpet time in school, or in a library, or snuggled up in bed. It is purely and simply an adventure story that will carry young children from a forest, across meadows, into cities, across oceans and home to a forest.

Produktbeschreibung
Once In A Lifetime Leaf is a story that has so many tangents, so many ways to turn it and think about it. For small children, reading out loud and showing the illustrations will bring the story to life. I can imagine this story being read with children at carpet time in school, or in a library, or snuggled up in bed. It is purely and simply an adventure story that will carry young children from a forest, across meadows, into cities, across oceans and home to a forest. 'Once In A Lifetime Leaf' is a colourful, whimsical, unforgettable experience. For adults and mature children, it is the story of a life well-lived and/or encouragement to seek out adventures throughout your life. There is nothing sad about this story -- it is a celebration of adventure, nature, learning, and decision-making. Marietta Camps wrote this story six months after losing her husband of almost sixty years. This story is an ode to a life well-lived, a person cherished and a great love of nature.
Autorenporträt
The author is Marietta Camps, a lifelong artist, storyteller, gardener and nature lover who lives in British Columbia, Canada. As a young girl, Marietta kept herself and her sister occupied with stories that she dreamed up and often acted out. Throughout her life, as a mother, grandmother, and artist, Marietta maintained and cultivated her ability to imagine and share stories. At 85 years old Marietta penned her first story 'Once in a Lifetime Leaf' and later 'Listen to your mother Dandelion'. 'Spiders on the Move' is Marietta's third story and there are two more stories being illustrated as I write this. Read the stories and hear Marietta's voice. Marietta's stories are inspiring to children as they listen or read to themselves. A wonder of nature is encouraged and celebrated. Marietta hopes to inspire people of any age to write down and share their stories.
