Description
This gorgeous, poetic story follows the unexpected journey of a lone tumbleweed making its way across the desert.

Wind blows.

Tumble goes.

Fence stops.

Tumble hops.

Cactus waves.

Tumble stays, and stays, and stays.

Using simple, succinct text and richly colored art, Adriana Hernández Bergstrom follows one tumbleweed on its journey across a desert unexpectedly teeming with life.

Tumble is an incredible read-aloud perfect for storytime or newly independent readers. Extensive backmatter identifies every plant and animal featured in the book and provides more information on the misunderstood tumbleweed and its ecosystem.
