"At the very top
of our world
is a huge wild place
called the Arctic.
Here in winter, the sun
sinks away,
blizzards fill the darkness,
and even the seas
freeze deep."
Celebrate poetry in nonfiction! Watch for this gem to be released in January. You'll feel as if you and your totz are joining the migration in this incredibly, beautiful book.
