Summary: The Wonders of the Planet, Earth.....
Comment: Poet, Marilyn Singer celebrates the wonders of our planet in this inspiring and inventive collection of poems about the earth. From mud, ice, deserts, fens, and dunes, to natural disasters, volcanoes, islands, caves, and more, she brings the marvelous intricacies of our world to life on the page. Each lyrical free verse is filled with imagery, magic, and joy, and are complemented by artist, Meilo So's evocative and captivating black and white, India ink drawings. Together word and art send imaginations soaring, and bring a new appreciation and respect to the power and beauty of nature. Perfect for youngsters 10 and older, Footprints On The Roof is a thoughtful, well crafted collection that shouldn't be missed. "Out in the country I walk across towns/I'll never see:/mazy metropolises/under the earth/where rabbits hide from foxes/foxes hide from dogs/full-bellied snakes sleep snugly/worms work uncomplaining // Where what you see is nothing-/what counts is what you smell/or hear or feel/I try to tread softly:/a quiet giant/leaving only footprints/on the roof"

Summary: Great read with my 7 year old son
Comment: I loved this book. I have read it every night with my son for the past week. It has beautiful poems and has great artwork. I recently bought it for a friend's child as well. This is accesible to children, but does not pander to them. Fabulous
