The life of the baobab tree is fascination and active. Children will enjoy the array of animals that take sustenance from the tree. Usually when I think of a tree, I think of an inanimate object whose only activity takes place during the changing of the seasons. This tree truly has an active life, which includes tiny insects, enormous elephants and even man. An exciting and educational story for children.
Someone softly stirs the leaves.
Twilight rides upon his back. Suspense mounts until the inevitable strike by the lion and a zebra meets its death. After the kill, the other animals return to the waterhole to drink, safe from the lion for the time being. The wild beauty of both the hunter and hunted is reflected in Katie Lee's paintings. Each scene, whether illuminated by gold setting sun or moonlight, captures the vitality and grace of the animals and the richness of the African plain.
