This book is rich with imagery. It invites the child to explore a river, a tree, the wind any more other objects and creatures.

What a lovely find! This book is suitable book to introduce poetry to children and enhance their love of reading.

The colors and illustrations are deep and vibrant.

I really loved the visuals and the bright colors in the illustrations. All the things a child can "be" were lovely, and I felt this book would be great for classroom or story time read alouds. Some of the poems really hit home for me, and others I felt the rhythm was off. But over all, a wonderful book to inspire and educate children

As an honest review, I didn’t enjoy this at all. It wasn’t what I’d expected and the poems felt as though they’d been written by 8yr olds. From the write up I thought there would be far more emotion and feeling, more descriptive writing to link with the emotions and hook children in. I was quite disappointed.

Kids should be exposed to beautiful poetry and art as part of their reading experience. The ebb and flow of playful, creative, rhyming language included in "Today I Am a River" is a celebration of the natural world.

Kids can use their imagination and creativity as they make believe they are a snake, skunk, wind, sunlight, or even a stone, just to name a few.

" Poetry can be a powerful teaching tool, helping kids improve their literacy. It can also allow writers to express their emotions and allow readers to connect to those emotions. Poetry is also connected to aesthetics, or the exploration of what is beautiful in the world." -- https://study.com

"Today I Am a River" is a lovely book to share at bedtime or any quiet time. It is inspirational and empowers kids to open up their eyes and imaginations to see their world from other perspectives. I love the book and highly recommend it.

I just want to sit down and cry seeing how beautiful the entire book is!
