Lullaby For Eggs: A Poem: 04/24/21
Lullaby For Eggs: A Poem by Betty Bridgman started as a poem and was transformed into a children's book by author/illustrator Elizabeth Orton Jones. It's a quiet poem comparing the Earth and more broadly, the environment, to a fragile egg. As eggs are cared for, so should the Earth be. It's a good read along with The Mess That We Made by Michelle Lord and Julie Blattman. I was pulled to this book by the beautiful illustrations by Elizabeth Orton Jones. They stand up to today's full color picture book illustrations, and are spectacular for 1955. I was fortunate to be given a copy in superb condition. Four stars Comments (0) |
