(3) YA Dramatic black-and-white photographs accompany this anthology of poems from around the world. The poems range in length and simplicity but are unified by a mood of love and awe. The verses may appeal only to adults, but the oversize photographs are likely to be enjoyed by many viewers. Sources and notes about birthing traditions are included at the back.
