River of Words

A collection of environmental paintings and poems taken from the River of Words (ROW) annual poetry and art contest for students K-12.

The artwork and poetry is focused on water and the book presents them in their natural order; from poems and paintings on rain as the source of water, to those on rivers, creeks, lakes, wetlands and finally, oceans.Michael, Pamela is the author of 'River of Words', published 2008 under ISBN 9781571316851 and ISBN 157131685X.
