Featuring twelve beautiful poems, and deeply luminous illustrations, Hailstones and Halibut Bones is a perfect poetry addition to any home or classroom library.

"An exploration in imaginative, evocative verses of the world of color and its relationship to the other senses."

"Has inspired young poets all over the country."
