When the Clouds Came Flying by

by Judyth Vary Baker

Poems that are fun to read aloud (or not!) in classrooms, at home, and in other places. These funny, sometimes outrageous poems present stories about everything from talking mice who have to escape garbage cans to magical moccasins that fly a child with broken legs across the planet -- with a focus on ecology, relationships, ethical problems, family, adventure, traditions, and travel. Some poems address the frightening aspects of modern life, with positive ideas to overcome them. These poems are also recommended for use in drama and speech classes for children.
