my 8 year old son, who has encouraged and directed this review, thinks this is an excellent book because he loves water, is an avid swimmer and enjoys creative writing. he feels this book has given him a good introduction into modern poetry and has sparked his interest in other books of similar style or theme.

Graham and Scott together have created a very eye-catching look at water in many of its forms. The concrete poems only add to the meaning. It is very well done.

This would be a perfect book to introduce concrete poetry in a classroom environment.

i am a kindergarten teacher and my students are in love with the poems in this book. they are visually interesting, full of rhythm and rhyme, and engage them in favorite topics, like popsicles and snow. i highly recommend this to any teacher or parent!
