"* "Yolen writes about everything, and makes readers feel that they can, too. Very young readers will love some of the simpler poems, and adults will find themselves thinking about this collection long after reading it. A must-have for middle school libraries that is good for the entire family."
— School Library Journal, STARRED review
A heaping helping of characteristically readable verse from a veteran writer and storyteller.
