Poetry Sunday (3/26/2017): "A Prayer For Old Age" by William Butler Yeats
For Poetry Sunday, I am recommending "A Prayer For Old Age" by William Butler Yeats. I hope you enjoy it!
#IMWAYR: Picture Book Pandemonium, Part 15!
The picture books just keep coming—today, I have three more I'm excited to share! What book is it? Gibberish by Young Vo Add it on Goodreads or preview the illustrations! Who recommended it? Beth Shaum at A Foodie Bibliophile in Wanderlust ! What does the publisher say? " It's Dat's first day of school in a new country! Dat and his Mah made a long journey to get here, and Dat doesn't know the language. To Dat, everything everybody says – from the school bus driver to his new classmates – sounds like gibberish. How is Dat going to make new friends if they can't understand each other? Luckily there's a friendly girl in Dat's class who knows that there are other ways to communicate, besides just talking. Could she help make sense of the gibberish? " What stood out to me? Wow—I checked this book out of the library moments after it was recommended, and that was absolutely the right call, because it is like no other book, in the best possible way
Lovely!
