Josh and Aaron loved to sit and watch the river flow gently past their house. Together they made up stories about it, they wondered - where did the river begin? In majestic landscape paintings Thomas Locker takes readers along on the boy's journey with their grandfather to find answer. Here are the many moods of nature: the special quality of early morning light; the clear blue sky; the flash of lightning that bursts through the night's darkness on the way home. This is a book which will open the reader's vision to a wider and deeper appreciation of all that is beautiful and awe-inspiring in nature.
