About this item
A dandelion can teach much about seeds and seasons and cycles, and the big world that a wind-blown seed can travel, but it also can make us appreciate the challenges it must overcome. This gorgeous book is at once simple and profound. You may be surprised and pleased by the questions and observations of your children after reading this together.
About the Author
Joseph Patrick Anthony was raised in Denver, Colorado, the tenth of eleven children. He married illustrator Cris Arbo and their first collaboration was "The Dandelion Seed" (Dawn Pub. 1997) . Their second book was "In A Nutshell" (Dawn Pub. 1999) .
His young adult novel, "Innerworld" (Bonneville Books, 2002) , is a story about changing the world from the inside out.
"The Dandelion Seed's Big Dream" (Dawn Pub. 2014) , is a sequel to "The Dandelion Seed". The many layered story took Cris a full year to illustrate, and we hope you'll agree the result was worth waiting for.
Book awards include the Benjamin Franklin Silver Medal, Parent Council Outstanding Selection, Mom's Choice Gold Award, Indie Book Award Finalist, and the Purple Dragonfly Award 1st Place.
Joseph's cosmology, "Our Multi-Tiered Universe: Showing That Atoms And Galaxies Are Relative Versions Of The Same Thing," is available as a free download from www.JosephPatrickAnthony.com. It explores anew the nature of time, space, matter, and energy.
