Miss Rumphius follows Alice Rumphius, who dreams of travel, a home by the sea, and of doing something to make the world more beautiful. Her simple act of scattering lupine seeds becomes a lasting, visible legacy along the coast.
Originally published in 1982, the book earned recognition on release and is celebrated for its warm storytelling and evocative images. The original artwork was carefully re-sourced for faithful reproduction; examples of the art are held at the Bowdoin College Museum of Art.
Ideal for read-alouds and early elementary readers, this gentle picture book explores themes of travel, home, nature, and the small actions that endure.

The book was in excellent condition and it arrived in approximately 5 days, much sooner than I had expected. I would definitely recommend this vendor.
This seller was incredible. I purchased an inexpensive (used) book and was almost immediately notified that it shipped on the same day I ordered it. I received it within 2 days. It was exactly as described - it looked like it had never even been read! Great service & a great product. Thanks!
