One Drop

Zing! Zap! Plop! Through lyrical text, this visually stunning nonfiction book traces a drop of water from cloud to aquifer, from underground stream to marsh, from lake to river, from ocean to strait, past icebergs and waterfalls and beaches, until finally back to cloud. Backmatter and glossary provide additional facts.

Kaitlin Sikes lives in Northeast Florida, near the Saint Johns River. This unusual river that flows north made her wonder...with no nearby mountains, where did it come from? And where was it going? The answers revealed unexpected global connections. Kaitlin is passionate about writing books that inspire wonder and loves searching for those stories alongside her husband and two children. When she isn’t writing or exploring the natural world, she works as a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner. One day, she would love to visit the beautiful places featured in this book.
