Review:
Nature is full of color and
filled with so many wonderful creatures. The land, sea and sky are an important
part of nature as well. Poetry put with astonishing images is why this book
feels alive. Readers of all ages will feel the warmth and emotion throughout
these pages. Poets like William Wordsworth, Emily Dickinson, Avis Harley, John
Keats, Alice Schertle and so many more have contributed. Their words are
focused on stellar photography from The National Geographic Society.
One example is a photo of
clown fish with their orange and white bodies found dancing against a blue-green
background. The words read, “The Clown fish is not an enemy of anemone; in
fact, it is an anemone’s made, for which anemone stings its enemies. And that’s
how friends are made,” by David Elliott.
These pages have titled
sections showing nature, the sky, across land, in the sea, in the shade and so
much more. Spectacular images will have every reader opening this book and
sharing it many times over.
