"In fall, trees let go of leaves,/ which swirl and twirl/ and slip into streams." 
Beginning with the leaves that fall off into streams, the cycle continues as bacteria feed on the leaves, and algae grow. Creatures eat these, and are in turn eaten by predators. Then come the trout that eat them, and produce more trout. And then "the people…catch the trout and eat them." The brief, brisk text joins all into the circle of life. This is a picture book.
