Synopsis

The fascinating life cycle of cicadas illustrated beautifully along the plot of a dramatized story: the long journey of a cicada nymph trapped underground for seventeen years; the friendly and hostile subterranean creatures he encounters; and last but not least, his triumphant debut in the above-ground world of the sun, the moon and open air to fly in. This book portrays the natural drama that transpires in a periodical cicada's mysterious life cycle. People say that a picture is worth a thousand words. Well, this book has about 20 pictures, and that's worth 20,000 words! You will love it. Your kids will love it!

À propos de l'auteur

M. Eigh was born in China and, before getting an MBA, he received a BSc from China's prestigious Tsinghua University, where most modern day Chinese ruling elites obtain their academic pedigree. But the alma mater is about the only thing he has in common with the techno-dictators of today's China. In his younger days, M. Eigh was a published poet in Chinese; at the age of fifteen, he won the first-place award in a prefecture-wide youth literature competition. He can be found at http://m.eigh.com.
