Fred Burstein is a poet of moments. He enjoys the woodlands around his home and celebrates them in short, lovely verses. From the poet's sharp eye we learn which way the frog faces …when the red eft comes out of hiding … how the wind, rain, sun and snow tickle the senses. We see through the eyes of a child, hear through the mind of a natural man who has spent his entire life amidst turning leaves, red berries, chickadees, bluejays, woodpeckers-and who else do you know who counts the Jack-in-the-Pulpit as a best friend?

Autorenporträt
Fred Burstein has had many jobs over the years: child mower of lawns; teenage "plower" of snow; adult actor; and elder teacher of the young. But whatever the job, his real work was to write stories and have them become books. This is his eighth published book, and like the first seven, this one is about growing up with animals. Fred Burstein and his wife Fran live in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains where their two daughters grew up playing in the woods, listening at night to owls and the brook below their bedrooms.
