How to Cross a Pond: Poems about Water

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Meilo So. Using free verse and rhyming forms, this companion volume to Footprints on the Roof: Poems about the Earth offers nineteen eclectic, tightly woven poems about water. Singer moves beyond an examination of water's forms and functions to create a contemplative consideration of its effects on all creatures and on the land it covers. Blue-ink drawings capture each poem's nuances.
