About this Book:

Janice's poetry book, Lion's Tooth, is inspired by the natural beauty of Vermont. Her poems remind us to show respect for living creatures and of the ebb and flow of life's seasons, birth to death. Part 1 of Lion's Tooth includes free verse, prose poetry and rhyming verse, and draws on Janice's recollections of her life, family and personal experiences. Part 2 of Lion's Tooth is a collection of seasonal or inspirational haiku, senryu and haikai.

Book Review:

What I notice here is the poet's lovely and deep attachment to the natural world around her and a kind of dancing with God and His call to her. -- Pati Austin-Kirk
