Ivy in Bloom: the Poetry of Spring from Great Poets and Writers of the Past


Ivy is a little girl surrounded by winter's gloom. But with the help of classic poetry by Emily Dickinson, e.e. cummings, Longfellow, Wordsworth, and many others, her gloomy days turn into beautiful springtime. Written by Vanita Oelschlager and illustrations by Kristin Blackwood. Read my review at the YABC website!

  1. I agree! I purchased this for my new niece, Ivy, born 7-26-09. It is a great way to introduce children to the classics in a delightful way!
