Amazon.com description: Product Description:
By the author of the Small Poems books
This new collection by Valerie Worth, conceived before her death, is sure to delight readers who know her celebrated Small Poems books, and will serve as a wonderful introduction for those first encountering her enchanting free verse. Accompanied by Natalie Babbittâs fine pencil drawings, âPeacockâ is joined by twenty-six other elegant poems by Worth about things as various as pandas and steam engines and icicles, in which, like her earlier work, she âfind[s] in ordinary things Blakeâs universe in a grain of sandâ (Booklist).
