African Acrostics: A Word in Edgeways

40 pp. | Candlewick | July, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7636-3621-0 $17.99
(2) K-3 Photographs by Deborah Noyes. In this collection of eighteen poems about African animals, Harley makes decoding the acrostics part of the fun. Noyes's vibrant color photographs, taken mostly in Namibia, are creatively composed and capture each animal's unique qualities. Together, poetry and photography make for a superb collection; the appended animal facts are a bonus.
