"A beautifully illustrated collection of poems full of surprises"
Beautifully illustrated with a carefully curated collection of poems, this anthology will be rewarding to share and a joy for readers to explore on their own.
The introduction alerts us to the ways poetry can make us see familiar things differently, and many of the poems bear this out. Grace Nicholls’ For Forest for example, in which Forest at nighttime when ‘darkness wrap her like a gown’, becomes ‘a bad dream woman’; or Your Dresses by Carol Ann Duffy, which describes Earth’s ‘thunderstorm dress’ and ‘its huge, dark petticoats, /its silver stitches flashing as you run away.’ Robert Macfarlane’s kenning-rich Otter is included together with poems by John Agard, Zaro Weil, Jack Prelutsky and more.
Four talented new illustrators are featured too, their fresh, exciting illustrations as memorable as the poems.
This is a book of poetry for everyone. Inside is a treasure trove of writing celebrating the natural world. Read the poems aloud or curl up with them in a quiet corner.
