Micha Archer

Micha Archer (www.artmicha.com) has illustrated The Wise Fool and Lola’s Fandango, and Daniel Finds a Poem is the first book she’s also written. Working in collage and oil, her use of color and pattern is influenced by the folk art, crafts, and architecture of the countries she has visited and lived in. She realized the importance of the book as a teaching tool after teaching kindergarten and raising two children. Micha divides her time between Costa Rica and western Massachusetts, where she lives in the house she and her husband built, surrounded by gardens and forest to roam in.

Résumé

Caldecott Honor winner Micha Archer’s spectacular collages showcase the wind’s ever-changing, blustery nature throughout the seasons.

Seasons come and go, and the wind wafts its way through them all. This delights a family of children, and when they ask the wind, “How will you blow today?” they get a kick out of not knowing what answer they’ll get. Will the wind send gentle breezes that tickle and delight, cooling them off on hot days? Or strong gusts that knock their hats off and send them running inside on stormy days? One thing is for certain to our wind watchers—the wind is an always-changing wonder and constantly takes their breath away!

Caldecott Honor winner Micha Archer’s stunning illustrations are sure to engage readers as they bring to vivid life the excitement of our windy weather.
