"If a child is to keep alive

his inborn sense of wonder

without any such gift from the fairies,

he needs the companionship

of at least one adult

who can share it,

rediscovering with him

the joy,

excitement,

and mystery

of the world we live in."

-- Rachel Carson                    

A child's sense of wonder

If a child is to keep his inborn sense of wonder,

he needs the companionship

of at least one adult who can share it,

rediscovering with him

the joy, excitement and mystery

of the world we live in.

                              --Rachel Carson.
