In this collection of poems about nature, Elizabeth Barrette sings to all of us about a wondrous world that we very often take for granted, strips away the veil of mundane life, and allows the breath of marvelous creation to enter and touch our souls. "Elizabeth possesses a compass that can transport her to any destination, no matter what the starting point or how strange the journey. All she has to do is admire the scenery and bring back her notes." -Nicole Robertson
