Poetry Friday--Where in the Wild?

Where in the Wild?: Camouflaged Creatures Concealed...Revealed [591.472 SCH] with its "ear-tickling" poems by David M. Schwartz and Yael Schy and "eye-tricking" photos by Dwight Kuhn is, quite simply, AWESOME!


For a teacher the book could serve several purposes:

Science through the study of animals, camouflage, pattern, etc.

Literature, specifically poetry. Especially a study of forms.

Fold out pages contain factual information about each creature.

For the reader there is the added delight of the search!

Here's one of the concrete poems found within. I hope the scan is clear enough to read, if not, come down to the library to borrow the book!



The Round-Up this week is being hosted by Wild Rose Reader.
