Sea Dream: Poems from under the Waves

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Joel Stewart. This varied collection of poems about the sea and the creatures in it is both entertaining and thoughtful. Spike Milligan and Sam McBratney offer humorous verses about sardines and barnacles, respectively; James Reeves compares the sea to a hungry dog. Other poets include Mary Ann Hoberman, Walter de la Mare, and Jack Prelutsky. The playful mixed-media illustrations are well suited to this welcome collection.
