Here is a book of poetry with beautiful artwork by Tasha Tudor. She lived from 1915-2008 and illustrated almost 100 books. I especially love the poem 'Baby' by George MacDonald here - so beautiful! Do you have any favourite books of poetry that you read with your kids?Linking to The Children's Bookshelf
Aww, this one is so beautiful! When the girls were younger, our go-to book of poetry was the Eloise Wilkin- illustrated Poems to Read to the Very Young. We also have a boxed set of board books illustrated by Jane Dyer called Animal Crackers. It had a mix of poems, songs, and nursery rhymes. We have others, too, but those were our favorites.
ReplyDeleteYou can't go wrong with Tasha Tudor! Thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteTasha Tudor's illustrations are heartwarming. I actually have book she signed, given to one of my kids, around 1974. I'll have to dig it up.
ReplyDeleteAs for favorite poetry - the list is long! But my kids LOVED a book of poems called "Everybody Has Two Eyes". I'm going to dig that one up, too, and tell you more about it. It was really special.
Wow, that's cool!
