(3) K-3 Illustrated by Anna Wadham. Fifteen poems explore Antarctica's frozen summer-scape. With occasional humor and evocative imagery--krill are "a trillion tiny astronauts," a petrel is a "flying trash can"--the verse brings to life some of the coldest continent's creatures and geographical features. Boxes of informational text expand on each poem. Illustrations in icy blues and whites reflect the habitat. Reading list, websites. Glos.
