Sometimes I feel like a river / by Daniel, Danielle.; Bisaillon, Josée.;
In each of twelve short poems, a child tells us how or why they feel like the sun, a river, a mountain, a cloud, the rain, a forest and more. Their deeply felt connections and identification with these wonders point to how much we are all part of the natural world. Each poem comes to life through vivid, playful illustrations that show the children immersed in their surroundings. The book serves as a gentle call to action -- to notice, appreciate, preserve and protect our environment, while delighting in all its beauty.
