Review: Beautiful book! - I bought this for my nephew. This is a large book, with beautiful artwork. My sister and my nephew (8 yrs old) have read it multiple times. The vocabulary is very sophisticated and even I had to look up some of the words. Great book for story time with children.
Review: Holy crap! - Gorgeous book!! 😍 You can get lost in the poems and the beautiful artwork! However it's not convenient to curl up and read with. You really can't visualize 11x14 inches until your propping it up on one hip. It's enormous size makes it difficult to place on a bookshelf. I'm very thankful they reduced the size for their next book and hope they will do more books in the furniture......small ones that is. Lol!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Truly Delightful
*by E***Y on February 11, 2021*

My 6 year old daughter has a keen interest in poetry and a love of nature. At a friend's recommendation I purchased this for her as a Christmas gift. It has given us hours of delight; the images are beautiful and detailed and teach lots of thing without the need to explicitly say them. She enjoys finding the "lost word" on each title page and asks questions about words she hears and doesn't know (our new favorite word is "unhirsute"). We've been using this book to learn a few poems for school and they're even simple enough for my 4 year old to recite (Newt! Oh, Newt! You are toooo cute!). The variety of types of poetry in this book was a surprise and I have enjoyed learning the flow of each poem, how best to recite it. An all around truly delightful experience. 10/10 would recommend
