Each Leaf

Poems by Sarah and David Mook 

Sarah Gail Mook was a student in the third grade at Buckingham Friends School in Lahaska, PA when she died suddenly on December 14, 1995. Sarah began writing poems in kindergarten. Reading Sarah's poems over and over during the months following her death inspired her father, David, to begin writing poetry. For David, "poetry is a gift from Sarah, a blessing." EACH LEAF is a celebration of Sarah's life, her gifts, and also embodies a journey through grief into healing and spiritual growth.

"A beautiful book that left me both grieving and rejoicing - a wonderful tribute to Sarah, and to poetry and to life." Christopher Bursk

"Heartfelt, heartbreaking and extraordinarily life-affirming in its ability to confront life/death, love/loss, belief. It tackles, in a remarkable way, the question: how does one go on living in the face of such grief and sorrow?" Cheryl Baldi 

EACH LEAF also contains an essay about father and daughter fishing on the Delaware River. "Fishing" was selected as a notable essay in the Best American Essays -2000.
