Description
A poignant portrayal of the joy and wonder of reconnecting with nature. This beautifully illustrated book tells the story of a young boy's discovery of an old pond in his neighborhood, which sparks a journey to restore it to its former beauty. With quiet appreciation, the boy envisions the pond as it once was, shining in the early spring light, freezing in winter for skating, and perfect for swimming in summer. As he rallies his friends to help him bring the pond back to life, they work together through the spring, clearing debris, moving rocks, and searching for leaks. Will their efforts be enough to fill the pond? This heartwarming tale of friendship and environmentalism is a powerful vision of making one's own wild place, with no special equipment or expenditure required.
