Pondering

A Story in Cinquains
A lyrical celebration of the natural world crafted in a uniquely American poetry form and paired with gorgeous, evocative artwork

This lyrically written and gorgeously illustrated ode to ponds is crafted in a uniquely American poetic form called American cinquain.

In this glorious celebration of nature, three girls walk an old trail in search of a hidden pond, marveling at treasures they discover along the way-darting dragonflies, croaking bullfrogs, fluttering sycamore leaves, and more. Written in a unique poetic form called American cinquain, the story seamlessly weaves together an invitation to readers to immerse themselves in nature, while also bringing attention to this endangered ecosystem. The info-packed pages at the end of the book include an overview of the pond ecosystem and the current threat to it, as well as an exploration of the cinquain form.
