These poems vividly display a reverence for the beauty of the natural world and a deep lament for its endangered status, but what makes them most interesting to me is the signature wry humor of their creator and his unique contrarian spirit. — Clemens Starck
In Watering the Rhubarb, Charles Goodrich combines his knack for humor and his lyrical voice to evoke empathy for a natural world we humans live in but often do not appreciate. He has a keen ear for using sounds to evoke emotion. There are many things here we will think about long after the book has been read and placed on a shelf. — Barbara Drake
