    It works for college students too
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2009*

My first sight of A River of Words came when I opened the box from Amazon and the bright, wordy picture on the cover beckoned me cheerfully in. The next day I carried the book to my two sections of sophomore literature at the University of Hawaii at Manoa, where we were just starting a block on Williams. The students loved it just as much as I did, and I'm sure the pictures helped them get into the poems. For me, especially, it was liberating to see an icon for "The Great Figure" that wasn't the familiar one by Charles Demuth.But I found two errors to correct in the next printing. The illustrator's note runs together the title of Williams's poem, "The Great Figure," and the title of Demuth's painting, "I Saw the Figure 5 in Gold." And the chronology at the back of the book gets the beginning of World War II wrong by nine years.

    Bryant and Sweet together is genius!
  

*by H***N on Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2017*

Jen Bryant is fast becoming our favorite author of children's biography at our house. Her writing style is as engaging as it is informative. As an adult, I learn a lot from her books as well and I love that. Pairing her fabulous writing with Sweet's amazing scrapbook-style illustrations is genius. I hope they continue collaborating. My daughter and I were excited about this book because we loved our introduction to William Carlos Williams' poetry in Love that Dog by Sharon Creech (another favorite at our house). We were not disappointed!

    A wonderful book!
  

*by L***D on Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2009*

"A River of Words: The Story of William Carlos Williams" is an incredibly engaging book.  I bought it for my 10-year-old grandson, and he is impressed with it.  The narrative is great, and the illustrations are some of the best I've seen.  At the end of the book, there are comments from both the author and the illustrator that give the reader additional perspective on the man and poet that William Carlos Williams was.  Several Williams poems are included in the book.  I recommend it for any child interested in writing and/or poetry.
