The Pond

'The Pond' by Carl Ewald begins with a pair of warblers in Italy as they meet and agree to travel home to their pond, build a nest, and raise a family. At the pond, its other residents make themselves known. An eel, a cray-fish, a water-spider, a carp, and countless other creatures make the area a vibrant community. This book shows that no matter how peaceful a place might look from the outside, no one can understand just how much chaos might lurk beneath the surface.
