Cactus Poems

(4) K-3 Photographs by Ted Levin. Nineteen poems--some rhyming, some free verse--explore the desert's flora and fauna, from saguaros and sand to coyotes and lizards. Each double-page spread features a poem and photos of varying sizes. The poetry is uneven, but the sharply focused color photographs are uniformly beautiful. Endnotes provide brief scientific information on the subject of each poem.
