Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

We just read this book by Joanne Ryder.

It's about the life cycle of cicadas, specifically the 17 yr ones, but they do mention the annual ones at the end. But it's all in a lovely story with beautiful illustrations. It looks like Amazon only has used ones available, and no picture on their site, but it's really a nice book.
