Awesome Earth: Concrete Poems Celebrate Caves, Canyons, and Other Fascinating Landforms

Concrete poems explore the shapes and features of Earth’s landforms. The book considers forces such as shifting crust, swelling water, flowing lava, and advancing glaciers, then connects those forces with forms including canyons, volcanoes, archipelagoes, and hoodoos. The arrangement of the poems uses visual form as part of the exploration. Back matter provides further information about landforms, a glossary, and additional resources, extending the book’s look at the planet’s physical geography and geological change.
