The Mighty Pollinators (Step Gently, Look Closely)

Helen Frost
4.27/5 (55 ratings)
Veteran collaborators return with poems and close-up photographs of pollinators doing what they do best.

Have you noticed, on a summer’s day, the fine powder at the heart of a flower or floating on a breeze? What is pollen, and why does it matter? Almost invisible, pollen waits for the one thing it a ride on the wind—or on wings, fur, or feathers. That’s where pollinators come in, small and mighty, holding the world together with their work. Soft, shimmering photographs saturated with color evoke the busy world of bees, butterflies, bats, and moths—and many lesser-known species—at close range. Poems encourage the reader to look closely, to marvel, and most of all, to care, while back matter underscores the vital role these creatures play in the ecosystem and the ways we can help pollinators help us.
