book cover for The Little Island

The Little Island
text by Golden MacDonald
illustrated by Leonard Weisgard
Caldecott Award Winner for 1947
This delightful book describes the life of an island and all it's inhabitants, both flora and fauna, throughout the year. Then a visitor to the island is used to show how the apparent isolation of the island is deceiving ... the island is connected to the rest of the world, even though it is completely surrounded by water. The beautiful watercolor illustrations and the lyrical words are used to provide an education on nature, environment and the connection we have in our world and others, regardless of appearances.
