What is poetry?

Is it crisp leaves crunching?
Squirrel thinks so.

Is it sun-warmed sand?
That's what Turtle says.

Could it be a cool pond, a glistening spiderweb, or moonlight on the grass?

Or maybe poetry is all of these things, because it's something special for everyone—you just have to take a little time to really look and listen. The magical thing is that poetry is in everyone, and Daniel is on his way to discovering a poem of his own after spending time with his animal friends.

Micha Archer's stunning collage illustrations are full of rich color, glorious details, and a sense of wonder. Her delightful story celebrates the poetry in everything around us.
