We are drawn to patterns. They catch our eye. Ripples on the sand, stripes in a rock, rows of clouds across the evening sky. Today's blog post offers two book recommendations: the novel
Pattern Recognition by William Gibson, and the children's picture book called
Miss Rumphius, by Barbara Cooney. These lupine seeds will travel on the wind and make the world more beautiful.
Oh yes, the lupine lady....one of my all time favourites!
ReplyDeleteMe too! I read (past tense, but if they are willing to listen I still read it even if they are now teenagers) it to my kids over and over. The illustrations depict the coast of Maine where I lived for three years. She also illustrated "The Ox Cart Man" by Donald Hall, which makes me cry every time I read it and it is not even sad.
