Cecily Cicada shares the lessons of cicada time with children

Do your kids have questions about cicadas? Are they anxious about the emerging swarm?

Pick up a copy of Cecily Cicada, written by Kita Helmetag Murdock and Patsy Helmetag, to read with them.

As the authors explain on Cecily's Web site:

"While Cecily's message of patience and hope is relevant to the seventeen-year cicada cycle, we believe it is a timeless message as well."

Sounds like a must read for you and the child in your life!
