"A Mountain Of an Artist is a collection of poetry that commemorates the natural world by Naaman Hills. You will learn many things about Naaman Hills through his poetry. First of all that he is a spiritual man and secondly he is a lover of nature. But I have to tell you; this is not a religious piece of work.
It is nice to see that Mr. Hills hasn’t forgotten about the animals. You will find many poems of animals sprinkled throughout, from dogs (a Collie from Brooklyn, New York) to the flightless ostrich. Mr. Hill’s poetry also includes real life situations (perhaps you have encountered some of these yourself!).
Throughout the book, you will find many photographs of Naaman and his wife, opposite an appropriate poem (I have to say--they are a good looking couple!!) Bob Roth performed his review for the very first edition of A Mountain of an Artist released November 2009. Since then those lovely pictures have been removed and some replaced for the better. Now the book contains 31 pictures, more than at first, with only one of Naaman and his wife to match a poem entitled My Pomegranate that he dedicated to her.--Italics ours.
Sometimes you just have to sit down, take a break, and gather your animals around you for reflection. (Don't be surprised to see how high Naaman scored in his review, two and a half out of five paws for a book that is not even fifty percent about animals. With Animal Radio it's all about the paws so overall this must be a good book.) With Naaman’s book of poetry, you can allow the beauty of nature to charm you while doing so."--Reviewed by Bob Roth, Animal Radio Book Club SUBMIT YOUR REVIEW
