8/23/2017 0 Comments Out of Wonder by Kwame AlexanderHow I Found: There are a few people I personally know who love poetry and poets as much as I do. One of these treasured humans came to me with that gleam in her eye, "look what I found!" Out of Wonder is a vividly illustrated (children's) book with poems about poets. Giving a glimpse into the lives and writing styles of 20 poets ranging from Robert Frost who "walked on ice through starless winter nights" to Okat p'Bitek that teaches we can "learn to love ourselves full like the pregnant moon." Why You Might Read: This is the perfect (re)introduction to a myriad of poets for both young and old. If you like the poem about the poet, I'd even venture to say you'll like their poetry. If you don't know where to begin, this is the place. Authors Kwame Alexander with Chris Colderley and Marjory Wentworth and illustrator Ekua Holmes have created a tabletop classic to get lost in. Tell Me: Have you read this book? What did you think?
