Reviews
"Kim certainly manages to convey both the delight the pair finds in each other's company and the child's exuberance. . . . Imaginative children could take this idea far; so could teachers covering homonyms and metaphors."--Kirkus Reviews
"A free-verse poem that celebrates the way that nouns can become verbs . . . a prompt that can start children off on a search for other words that work in the same way."--Publishers Weekly
"A sweet and immersive appreciation of nature and family time together. Perfect for one-on-one and small group sharing."--School Library Journal
