Seeds Planted in Concrete (2015)
lxxxiv. Do you understand? What you are made of? The very stars combust in the night sky with the same atoms that make up your mind. The trees breathe the same air as you do, the very salt of your skin is the same salt that crashes against shorelines due to the turning of the moon. Can you feel that? The nature within you?

Through illustrations and poetry, Bianca Sparacino shows readers that the beauty of life can be found in contrasting things— like love and loss and the title itself how seeds could be planted on a solid surface.
