This simple nonfiction picture book about the beloved American poet William Carlos Williams is also about how being mindful can result in the creation of a great poem like The Red Wheelbarrow--which is only sixteen words long.
Look out the window.
What do you see? If you are Dr.
William Carlos Williams, you see a wheelbarrow.
A drizzle of rain.
Chickens scratching in the damp earth .
The wheelbarrow belongs to Thaddeus Marshall, a street vendor, who every day goes .
