I am an admirer of the work (poetry and fiction) of Naomi Shihab Nye. Her newest anthology is a beautiful blend of art and poetry from the Mideast. She is a very talented writer and selector of poetry. My library serves K-5 and this anthology is better used at the Middle School and up. However, we have it in our collection along with -This Same Sky- because our teachers use them with students from time to time. Both of these collections offer poems that were previously not accessible to our students and faculty. Sue McGown
