This Big Sky

32 pp. | Scholastic | January, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-590-37120-7
(3) K-3 The landscape, animals, and people of the Southwest are vividly described in this lyrical collection. Mora's poetry resonates with lush images, from the quiet immensity of the desert night sky to the tension before a desert storm and the songs of all living things following a refreshing rain. Jenkins's cut-paper collages extend the earthy yet mystical tone of the poems. A glossary of Spanish words is appended.
