Grass grows "in places others can't /where wind is high and water scant." Bacteria is "ancient, tiny/teeming, mixing, melding / strands curled like ghostly hands." This collection of original poetry highlights a diverse group of nature's most adaptive species, from mollusks to dandelions to coyotes to humans. Each poem is paired with in-depth information about its subject matter. Glossary. Author's note with references. Illustrator's note. Full-color illustrations are linocuts hand-colored with watercolor.
