"A gifted poet demonstrates the remarkable versatility of words through one kind of found poetry.... Delightful."
Kirkus ★ STARRED REVIEW
A beautiful, emotional, and incredibly creative poetry book that inspires reflection, dreaming, and writing. A must for libraries and schools."
- School Library Journal ★ STARRED REVIEW
These tiny nestlings, no more than a few lines each, still offer much to ponder: beauty... whimsy... and even wisdom, like that in 'A Definition of Maybe' ("hinge between / wild / and safe")..." This clever poetry exercise will inspire reflection, recreation, or simple enjoyment."
