This book, "A River of Words: The Story of William Carlos Williams", by Jen Bryant is an absolutely beautiful book of art and words! It is gorgeously illustrated and I liked the sample text: "plums, wheelbarrows, fire engines, children, and trees"- the sort of vocabulary and rhyming that children love!
