In the Small Small Pond로 Caldecott상을 수상한 Denise Fleming의 그림책입니다.

집들이 가득 들어찬 도시 지역도 한 때는 나무가 울창한 숲이었습니다. 풀밭과 개울이 있었고, 여우가 눈을 감고 휴식을 취하던 곳, 고시리가 잎을 활짝 펼치고, 바이올렛 꽃이 자라던 곳, 마멋이 아침이슬을 먹기 위해 집밖으로 나서던 곳, 밤에는 올빼미가 새끼들에게 줄 먹이를 찾아 나서던 곳이었습니다.

왜가리, 너구리, 뱀, 연작새, 꿩 등 다양한 동물들이 삶의 터전을 이뤘던 곳... 우리가 사는 마을은 먼 먼 옛날에는 나무가 가득하고, 초원이 펼쳐졌으며, 개울이 흐르던 아름다운 자연 그 자체였습니다...

Book Description
A powerful poem and stunning, handmade-paper art encourage children to protect nature. Inspired by events in her own backyard, award-winning author and illustrator Denise Fleming creates a poignant yet hopeful portrait of our disappearing natural environment. The last pages of the book teach children how to make a more "creature friendly" backyard, including information about what types of food, trees and flowers attract different kinds of animals. Where Once There Was a Wood also includes an informative bibliography for budding environmentalists, and suggests various projects that families can do together.

From Publishers Weekly
PW called this plea for the conservation of wildlife habitats "a beautiful call to action."

From School Library Journal
Fleming's unique illustrative style provides an exciting backdrop to this distinctive, environmental picture book. The simple, hand-lettered text introduces the wild creatures and plants that once thrived in a wooded area, before their displacement by a housing development. Art, text, and design are creatively matched. Lush, textured collage artwork features a stunning combination and arrangement of colors with brilliant hues juxtaposed against muted earth tones. It is remarkable that the gentle, poetic narration is never overpowered by the pictures. Instead, a graceful rhythm is established as the natural habitats are explored. The tempo accelerates when animals are observed in action. The final two pages provide a dramatic conclusion as the text switches from free-flowing to deliberate. The illustrations change as well, presenting a sharp contrast between the beauty of the natural habitat and the stark symmetry of roof lines and window frames. Suggestions for creating backyard habitats and brief directions for establishing butterfly and hummingbird gardens are appended, along with information about the National Wildlife Federation and a list of related books. A book to be shared with and enjoyed by a wide audience.

From Booklist
Fleming celebrates wildlife in this beautifully illustrated picture book. The text is one long sentence strung out in fragments, telling of how things were before a housing development was built: "Where once there was a wood / a meadow / and a creek / where once the red fox rested and closed his eyes to sleep /. . . .where once there was a wood a meadow and a creek / sit houses side by side / twenty houses deep." Using her signature medium of papermaking with brightly colored cotton rag fibers, Fleming creates a series of striking spreads that show up particularly well from a distance. The textures and colors create appealing effects of dappled light and shadows. Four pages of appended notes, evidently aimed at adults and older children, tell how to plan a backyard habitat that welcomes wild creatures. Included are lists of plants that provide shelter and food and books that provide further information.

From Kirkus Reviews
Already a favorite of preschoolers, Fleming (In the Small, Small Pond, 1993, etc.) takes an appreciation of the natural world a giant step further. Rhythmic verse--``Where once there was a wood/a meadow/and a creek . . . sit houses side by side/twenty houses deep''--demonstrates that there was another sort of community before people arrived, ``where once the brown snake/slithered and slipped out of sight.'' An ecology lesson it surely is, but it's also a celebration of the earth and its creatures. Illustrations in vivid jewel-and-earth tones appear on handmade paper; the woods, creeks, and meadows are clean and inviting, and, bringing balance to the presentation, the new houses are not without their charms. The lively back matter, titled ``Welcome Wildlife to Your Backyard Habitat,'' offers substantial, easily executed suggestions for encouraging wildlife around the home; it's information just right for family and classroom sharing. Perfect for Earth Day observances, a book that's as welcome as spring.
