Swirl by Swirl: Spirals in Nature by Joyce Sidman

5.0

This is a gorgeous book devoted to the wonder of the spiral shape in nature. The poem leads us gradually through forests, to animals sleeping, to plants, and into space, encouraging us to find the spirals in the pictures and explaining how the shape is powerful. The colorful scratch art by Beth Krommes ties into the poem in its content and design. This makes a good text for science and language arts integration.
