The Mermaid's Purse by Ted Hughes - From the author of the Iron Giant and British Poet Laureate comes this collection of 28 poems about the sea and the seashore. In turns lyrical, whimsical and robust, these poems capture the beauty, drama and mystery of the sea. The poems are illustrated with black and white drawings from Flora McDonnell. For all ages. In the tradition of Edward Lear, Brown has fashioned 14 more nonsense poems so wacky that both young and old will be unable to suppress their laughter.
Colorful illustrations add the perfect compliment to the words.
For all ages. Joy promises that and her descendants will return each spring, and over time, they transform the mountain into the perfect home. This original fable is boldly illustrated with the colorful collage of Eric Carle. For ages 4 to 8. A lonely sea horse finds friends who appear in progressively larger groups.
