Miss Rumphius tells the story of Alice Rumphius, who travels, settles by the sea, and makes a deliberate effort to leave the world more beautiful by scattering lupine seeds. Its simple, lyrical text fits perfectly with gentle read-aloud moments for young listeners.

Barbara Cooney's illustrations were carefully restored for later editions, preserving their classic charm. The title earned the American Book Award, and Cooney is a two-time Caldecott medalist; original art is held at the Bowdoin College Museum of Art.

Suitable for children and family story time, the book explores themes of travel, place, stewardship, and the small acts that shape a landscape.

  • Themes: nature, coastal life, stewardship
  • Format: illustrated picture book, 32 pages
