Once Upon Our Planet

VITA MURROW is an author, artist and educator. Kirkus magazine described her debut chil-dren’s title Power to the Princess as “brilliant”. She grew up performing in theatre in her home town of Minneapolis, MN, where she developed her love of imaginative play and great story-telling. She went on to direct a regional school literacy program and serve as a teacher in New York City and Seattle, before settling in Massachusetts with her husband and two children. Nomadic, Romanian-born illustrator AITCH has travelled widely, which she says has inspired her folky style, along with childhood memories, legends and folklore. She lives and works in Berlin, Gernamy.

This book would make an excellent class read-aloud... A perfect gift for those children who love stories about nature and a welcome addition to a home, school or public library.
