Celebrating the natural world and its symbols, Dreams to Dance in Moonlight, Ways of Seeing, Feeling & Imagining (Nature/Symbols) is a playful journey that will fire up a dialogue between children, parents, and teachers.

(Publishers Weekly) From a variety of ecosystems, wolves, tigers, cows and condors pose riddles for dreams of all kinds, and provide the sparks for children to ignite their own.
