Review
Praise for Pablo Neruda: * "Paschkis' lush, earth-toned paintings . . . teem with the florid stream of words and images populating the inner world of the budding poetic consciousness." —Kirkus Reviews, starred review "The attributes that Brown has selected to share and her simple but impassioned telling combine with Paschkiss vibrant, decorative style for a book high in child appeal." —School Library Journal
