"Sylvia Elber has captured those raw moments of insight when you realize what your life has been & what it can still be. Loss & disappointment are there, & so is an amazing forward-looking spirit. Lucid & honest, wonderfully skillful & intelligent-- these poems cannot help but move a reader. We have much to learn from them."--Dorothy Wall, co-author of "Finding Your Writer's Voice." "She has quiet strength, wry humor & a loving heart. To read these poems is to know this woman, & knowing her, find your own way more clearly, for her hand rests gently on your shoulder."--Joanne Gonzalez. "This book glimpses the poet's personal journey & metamorphosis with honest insight & wise self-reflection; a book that inspires hope, strength, & will to embrace the tribulations & beauty in our later years."--Daniel Skenderian, Ph.D. "These poems go straight to the heart of women's lives & illuminate their search for meaning. This vibrant, intense, passionate writing opens horizons to the young."--Marilyn Barrett, author of "Creating Eden." "My room-mates & I read these poems aloud to each other. This is MY grandmother."--Sian Beilock, sophomore & captain, Lacrosse team, University of California, San Diego. Order: Gecko Press, P.O. Box 171, Claremont, CA 91711-0171. (909) 621-5835.

Humor

On each spread of this delightful board book, vibrant illustrations of faces, animals, toys, and more gaze back at the reader. Labels give the Spanish and English words for what we see--colors, shapes, eyes, ears, nose, hair--and there are more connections to find in every illustration pair. Words and images are chosen to include the unexpected and imaginative alongside the obvious, making this more than just a first-words book. This is a bilingual book for adult reader and child to learn and explore together--to ask questions, point, and talk--or to enjoy quietly alone.
