Zoe Burke is the author of the Nature Discovery Book series (PomegranateKids), featuring art by Charley Harper. When she was a little girl, her grandmother used to write letters to her that rhymed, and Zoe has loved making children s poems ever since. She lives in Portland, Oregon, with her husband.
Charley Harper (August 4, 1922 - June 10, 2007) had an alternative way of looking at nature. His serigraphs were large expanses of rich color, which gave the viewer a very different perspective on the animal kingdom. A conservationist as well as an artist, Harper revealed the unique aspects of his wildlife subjects through highly stylized geometric reduction. Harper said he was "the only wildlife artist who has never been compared to Audubon," yet his wildlife art was just as instructive - the only difference was that Harper laced his lessons with humor. Harper believed that humor made it easier to encourage changes in our attitudes and awareness of environmental concerns.
Little children are going to love exploring the unique artwork and delightful rhyming text in this special book. --Through the Looking Glass Children's Book Reviews
