description: In Aesop's fable, the artistic and carefree grasshopper fiddles through the summer and starves in the winter. But unlike Aesop, author Louise Plummer exalts the ants may save grasshoppers from physical starvation, but grasshoppers may save ants from spiritual starvation. In this collections of essays, Louise Plummer does just that as she gives both ants and grasshoppers a feast for the heart, a panacea for boredom, and a balm for the spirit.
