Peepers

Bok av Eve Bunting
A good introduction to both New England and the joys of nature. Booklist Its fall again, and time for Jim and Andy to help their dad run Freds Fall Color Tours. The tourists they shuttle around are Leaf Peepers and, boy, do those Peepers love to ooh and aah about the dumbest things. Leaves, trees, pumpkins. Bo-o-ring. But this year, even as they poke fun at the Peepers, Jim and Andy cant help but notice how the leaves floating in the river look like a brilliantly colored island, and how the spiky tree branches seem to sweep the clouds across the night sky. Maybe the Peepers arent so silly after all.
