When Paloma arrives at the big building with so many other children living there, she stays silent and watches. But soon the cozy red carpet beckons--a place for her to draw and make friends, learn the language and learn to read. More change looms, however, and the children learn they'll have to leave their beloved carpet behind, so Paloma and her friends get creative and imagine a fitting farewell for their magic carpet. This is a touching story of refuge, change, and friendship from the talented author/illustrator Carme Lemniscates.

Striking illustrations and a simple narrative celebrate the potential of seeds, literal and metaphorical.Some seeds are whisked away by the wind, while others are carried by creatures to their destinations. Once seeds find their spot, they go through breathtaking transformations, multiplying in number and size and thriving in even the most unseemly places. We humans plant seeds, too, and with care we can cultivate and nurture something wonderful, whether by sowing a seed in the earth or by choosing our own seeds of kindness to spread around. With gorgeous, welcoming illustrations, the creator of Trees and Birds presents another ode to the beauty around and within us.
