A joyful celebration of creativity, nature, and the family bonds that inspire and sustain us. Meadow loves making musical instruments out of clay--the very body of the Earth--just as her grandpa does. Together they make flutes, whistles, ocarinas, horns, and round pot drums that sing with the voices of nature. Wild animals respond to the jubilant sounds by echoing back their own calls! When a fierce storm causes destruction and loss, grief and sorrow fill the air . . . until one day, Meadow makes a discovery that unlocks the secret behind Grandpa's powerful music that "sings up the earth."Brimming with joy and wonder, Sing Up the Earth! honors the deep kinship between humans and nature while tenderly conveying the love that connects families from one generation to the next.
