When the Sun Shines on Antarctica: And Other Poems about the Frozen Continent (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798348051433)

Experience summer like you've never experienced it before by traveling to Antarctica with evocative poetry.

Icebergs brighten
as the sky peels
itself of darkness
and stretches awake. . . .

Welcome,
Summer.
We've been waiting
for you.

The sun rises, ice melts, grass grows, seals squabble, whales sing, and young penguins slide, glide, and belly flop. Irene Latham's evocative poems are accompanied by additional facts that provide further details about the animals and their environment. Whimsical illustrations from Anna Wadham complete this charming collection.
