Windows and Words is a collection of seventeen essays that confirms and celebrates the artistry of Canadian Children's Literature. There are essays that survey a wealth of English language fiction, from the internationally acclaimed work of Lucy Maud Montgomery, the aboriginal adolescent novel, to the increasingly multi-cultural character of children's books. Others examine book illustration, visual literacy, and the creative partnership seen in the picture book and its art design. With contributions by two Governor General's Award winning authors, Janet Lunn and Tim Wynne-Jones, and a final commentary by Elizabeth Waterson, the heart of this collection offers a unique perspective on the artistry of writing for children and claims a rightful place for Canadian children's literature as literature.

Words are exciting to me. Like jigsaw pieces, when properly arranged, they become a beautiful story picture of communication that can plant love in a heart, tears in the eyes, and laughter on a sad face. Words are powerful. They direct the floundering, reform the sinner, and teach scholars. Words have the ability to concoct stories, document facts, comfort another, sign a peace treaty, compose a love letter, affirm a birth or a death. Words preserve visual and hidden meanings to be discovered by the reader. Because of my fascination with words I express my interpretations over two hundred ways in my poems that comprise this book. I want my words [poems] to live on for others to enjoy, love, hate or whatever.
