A review by luann
Butterfly Eyes and Other Secrets of the Meadow by Joyce Sidman, Beth Krommes

4.0

Poetry which are also riddles combine with nonfiction paragraphs full of interesting facts and which also give the answers to the riddles. Add in the fantastic stylized illustrations by Beth Krommes which also give clues to the riddles and you have a another great book by Joyce Sidman.

I think my favorite nonfiction part was the facts about deer and trees. I was recently out in a part of the forest that is recovering from a forest fire. It's amazing to see the young trees growing back.

I also loved the shape poem of the toad! That wouldn't work well as a read-aloud, but it's a LOT of fun to look at!
