Children’s Picture Book - MISS RUMPHIUS
What can you do to make the world more beautiful?
Written and illustrated in her trademark luminescent watercolours by legendary artist Barbara Cooney, MISS RUMPHIUS decided what she could do to make the world more beautiful. The fields and sand dunes along the North American East Coast, truly resplendent in their lupin flower profusion, reflect this beauty today!
Republished for the 30th anniversary of two-time Caldecott-winner Barbara Cooney's best-loved book, MISS RUMPHIUS tells the story of little Alice growing up to see the world, and travel, but remembering to fulfill the promise she made to her Grandfather.
"You must do something to make the world more beautiful." A new generation of lucky children will now get to find out what she did.
