Illustrated by
Cathryn Falwell.
Interesting perspectives on time are explored in this collection designed for children who are beginning to understand the concept. Some poems are just right for this age group, while others seem more suited for an older audience. For example, "Wasting Time" describes a child who "excels in the art of inaction." Falwell's whimsical mixed-media collage illustrations enhance the lighthearted tone of the book.
