Sound of Snow Falling - Maggie Umber

Sound of Snow Falling by Maggie Umber / 104-page paperback, 6.8 x 8.5 inches, flexibound, full-color offset

***

A paint and paper documentary, observing great horned owls in their natural habitat.

Sound of Snow Falling is a graphic novel done in a poetic documentary mode. In this unique work, the reader becomes a voyeur of the natural world, following a great horned owl family through the dead of winter. Extensively researched and expressively painted, Sound of Snow Falling is a triumph of the comics form.

"Umber beautifully uses comic form to take the reader through intimate movements in nature."--Aidan Koch
