Oil and collage artwork. Such a good read aloud, highly recommended for sharing with PreK-2+.

Gorgeous collage illustrations and a subtly fantastical story that builds a quiet, lovely, poetic conclusion. Perfect for nature lovers & STEAM curriculum.
Great way to introduce concept of poetry to children.

Gorgeous introduction to poetry for little kids. The illustrations are as sweet as the text. Love this one.
Truly lovely, this made me want to go to the park and write a poem. Magical.
What a beautiful introduction to poetry for our youngest readers!
