Salting the Ocean: 100 Poems by Young Poets
selected by: Naomi Shihab Nye
with pictures by: Ashley Bryan
Greenwillow Books, © 2000
Over the past twenty-five years, Naomi Shihab Nye has brought poetry into classrooms across the United States. For Salting the Ocean, she selected 100 poems from the "vast heaps" she's gathered from her students. Ashley Bryan's vibrant illustrations complement the refreshing and thought-provoking poetry. One message readers can take away from the collection is: "These poets live anywhere...They could be you."
