When the Horses Ride By: Children in the Times of War

40 pp. | Lee | June, 2006 | Trade ISBN 1-58430-249-6 $17.95
(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Jan Spivey Gilchrist. Each of these seventeen original short poems deals with war or other acts of violence and how the event affected the children who witnessed it. Despite the subject matter, many of the poems have a gentle tone. Powerful collage illustrations incorporate photographs and drawings. An author's note ties some of the poems to a specific time period and event.
