Review:
The stunning imagery in this poetry collection is a wonderful way to visit the shore with out wearing sunscreen. The playful and powerful language of each poem paints an expressive picture of all the aspects of the seashore and its native creatures. The vivid imagery is accompanied by vivid illustrations for each poem. Personifying the inhabitations of the shore in these poems opens a new window for those who have not experienced them. This collection of poetry is a way to share in the shore without bring home sand in your shoes.
Highly Recommended.
