This Is a Poem That Heals Fish (public library) is one such vitalizing gasp of loveliness -- a lyrical picture-book that offers a playful and penetrating answer to the question of what a poem is and what it does. And as it does that, it shines a sidewise gleam on the larger question of what we most hunger for in life and how we give shape to those deepest longings.--Maria Popova, <i>Brain Pickings</i> <p/> This Is A Poem That Heals Fish is a rare little miracle of a book. It manages the brilliant trick of explaining the abstract concept of a 'poem' to a child through the simple but effective art of demonstration. The book itself is a perfectly constructed poem.-- <i>posterband.com</i> <p/> Exuding magic and unbridled creativity on every page, this is a book with the potential to heal more than just fish. - <i>Publishers Weekly</i> <p/>An enchantingly abstract invitation to ponder poetry.-- <i>Kirkus Reviews</i> <p/> A great book for any age!
