Splash!: Poems of Our Watery World Book

From juicy grass to waves of spit and anger to teardrops to winter "sky-pickles," award-winning poet Constance Levy splashes around in all water's many forms. Thirty-four poems celebrate snowdrops, soap bubbles, fog, and glaciers, in a way that will encourage young readers to view the regular old world through new lenses: I love you, fuzzy foggy air, so dewy wet and white because without you who would know what walking in a cloud is like? David Soman's shades-of-blue-gray illustrations (in watercolor, of course) more often evoke than depict, inspiring still more flights of fancy in the reader. Levy's childlike joy in water--whether it be a still pool, scampering ocean waves, or "tasty snowflakes"?-is contagious. (Ages 8 to 12) --Emilie CoulterRead More

  • Product Description

    Water runs through our lives; in fact, it is essential to all life. It takes many forms ­ it can be the liquid that quenches our thirst, the rain that pours from the sky, the juice of a ripe tomato, even a dramatic white tower in a polar landscape. These poems observe nature and invite young readers to make observations of their own.
