By David Elliott, Amy Schimler-Safford “These are evocative, memorable, and gently humorous poems that artfully capture the atmosphere and details of the environment. . . . These poems showcase the natural world in breathtaking detail.” — Kirkus Reviews When the soft pink of the dawn sun starts peeking over the pond, a new day has begun for all the animals who live in it and around its watery edges. The friendly duck family, the mysterious water striders, and the busy beaver are a few of the many fascinating and familiar animals included in this glowing poetic tribute to the lively ecosystem of the pond. A companion to In the Sea , In the Wild , On the Farm , and In the Woods , At the Pond brings readers to the pond’s sun-dappled shores, pairing David Elliott’s witty and enchanting animal poems with Amy Schimler-Safford’s luminous and evocative scenes of pond life. Back matter notes about the animals and plants will further captivate young nature lovers. AWARDS • 2022 Cybils short-listed
