The Sun's Babies

Edith Howes and Frank Watkins

She went to the Afternoon Clouds and asked them to play with her: that is the kind of book this is. Edith Howes, New Zealand's beloved spinner of nature fairy tales, mixes flower babies, seed children, and sun-warmed lessons in how growing things work. Science dressed in gossamer for small listeners. Let the sun introduce its family. Please note: this is the text of the story only. It has no pictures, so it is meant for a grown-up to read aloud rather than for a child to read alone. The illustrated experience of this story is the audiobook edition on Littletone.
