I'm Small and Other Verses

I'm Small and Other Verses

by Mcelmurray Jill (Author), Moore Lilian (Author)

Synopsis

I'm taller today; but nobody knows. I looked in the mirror; way up on my toes. For the very first time; I saw my Nose! How does it feel to be the first person to walk in newly fallen snow? To swing from a tree in the wind? To make a squishy picture with fingerpaints? Written by renowned poet Lilian Moore and warmly illustrated by Jill McElmurry, this collection of verses perfectly captures the memorable emotions and experiences of childhood.

She says of I'm Small, Reading these evocative poems for the first time I was transported back to the days of mud pies and rope swings.
