Laughing Out Loud, I Fly: Poems in English and Spanish

48 pp. | HarperCollins/Cotler | January, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-06-027604-5
(3) YA Inspired by Picasso's poetry, but rooted in the author's childhood, twenty-one poems (presented first in Spanish, then in English) paint word pictures that celebrate different ways of seeing. Steeped in sensual imagery, the verse fractures and transforms the ordinary into vivid, yet dreamlike, experiences. The poems are superimposed over spare, stylized drawings that accent an image or two from each poem.
