Review: Border Voices 17: What We Dreamed Of

Border Voices 17: What We Dreamed Of by Jack Webb
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Find any of the 20+ Border Voices anthologies, buy it or borrow it, and keep it near a place you sit when you want stillness. Be curious, and take in the ideas of San Diego children (K-12) voiced in poems and art. As a classroom teacher who hosted this program for many years, I have seen and felt the alchemy achieved with a Border Voices teaching poet, a group of students, and a teacher supporting behind the scenes.

Review: Old Turtle

Old Turtle by Douglas Wood
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book just came to me in "Recommendations". I know this book, and it is a treasure to me in its physical form, and in the mood it evokes in my mind even now, years since I've read it.
The illustrations are watery and soft. The text moves slowly and peacefully.

Read this for yourself, then read it to a child or two or even an entire classroom.
