This poetic story has universal appeal and spans time and distance with eloquent simplicity. In fourteen gentle stanzas, sleepy-eyed children throughout history draw comfort from bedtime tales and tender lullabies. Here, their innate curiosity about the world around them is satisfied by timeless music that drifts through centuries on the wind. Loving parents sing of white polar bears, northern lights, sea creatures, and woodland animals that dance under the stars and visit each child on the edge of sleep.

Evocative rhyming text and vivid images will call little ones back time and again to hear the song that drifts into their own special dreams and links them to past and future generations.

Caroline Everson was born in England, moved to Canada when she was three, and now lives in Port Hope, Ontario, with her husband, their cat, and the last of their three children to leave home. She has a BA in Geography. Caroline has great memories of camping when their children were young, sitting around a campfire telling stories and gazing up at the stars. Her first writing success came in Grade 5 when her poem about spring was posted on Mrs. Berry's classroom door. Song on the Wind is Caroline's first picture book.
