The big empty : a sagebrush survival story / Kirbi Fagan.
People passing by call this land the big empty. / But I call it home. In spare poetic text written from the point of view of a big sagebrush, readers are transported to the American west. This incredibly resilient plant, which can live more than one hundred years, provides food, shelter, and shadows to conceal both predators and prey. After a wildfire passes through, it grows again and will thrive once more. Author and illustrator Kirbi Fagan captures the nature of the vital sagebrush with awe-inspiring words and gorgeous illustrations.
