I was hoping for information about Rachel Carson as I have not yet read any of her books, but I received an impressionistic and emotion-driven biography written in the first person that seems to think poetry trumps the hard work and research that goes into science writing. Names, dates, and other important context is eschewed for pretty seascapes. And the art is nice, but mostly depicts Carson looking like a child or teen until just a page or two before her death.

And once again, the editors of the Seen series stupidly include a teaching guide in the back that refers to page numbers in the story despite no page numbers appearing on the story pages. Only the teaching guide pages have page numbers! AAARRRRGGGHHHH!! STOP IT!… (plus d'informations)
