	Print Feature Sheet

At Kids Can Press, we recognize that viewing a single spread is not always effective when attempting to evaluate reading level, gauging student interest or appraising the quality and detail of illustration in a children’s book.

For this reason, we have worked with Lookybook.com to incorporate full, cover-to-cover previews of select picture books and early reading titles within our on-line store. We believe that Lookybook is the most compelling previewing experience currently available on-line, and that it’s as close and you can get to flipping through pages of the real book in a bookstore, at a trade show or school library. We hope that you will take advantage of this useful feature while browsing through our Web site.

For more information about Lookybook, or to read reviews of our books by librarians, industry experts and moms and dads, visit www.lookybook.com.

Your heart is designed To be broken and mended. — "The Heart" These quietly beautiful and surprisingly humorous four-line poems reveal the many aspects of first love — the longing, the frustration and the joy. The poet writes not from a single point of view but instead embraces the duality of first love, alternating between the perspectives of a boy and a girl. The poems and revealing illustrations by Julie Morstad combine to inspire young readers to think … and think again. Reviews “It is filled with witty, insightful, playful, and ontarget poems. ThinkAgain should be forced into the hands of every sensitive, soul-searching teen. They might even mumble a thank you for it.” — Quill & Quire Starred Review, March 2010 “An ideal book for wandering, wondering romantics.” — Booklist, March 2010 “He focuses on mind and heart, bringing a warmth and depth of reflection that seems to open our brain, cells to new perceptions — just what poetry is there for.” — Toronto Star, March 2010 “While the illustrator’s spare grayscale drawings curiously stitch more of a narrative thread through the volume than the poems suggest, they effectively amplify the tension they masterfully depict.” — Kirkus Reviews, April 2010 “Lawson’s writing is spare and humourous, and he captures universal feelings whose force never seems as huge as in adolescence.” — Voice of Youth Advocates, June 2010
