Ocean Poems for Children
Our second poetry anthology for children came out in fall of 2020, and I'm really proud of all the work of all 70 contributors in this book, especially during this pandemic year. We are all New England artists and authors. Thank you to everyone for helping us make this beautiful book!

An Assortment of Animals
It’s fun…
There’s a centipede that goes shoe shopping, a cat who dreams of haute cuisine, a slug on a slip-n-slide!
Sweet…
Moms and babies: deer, pangolins, giraffes, elephants—with art that makes you want to cuddle.
A little bit scary…
Some of the predators in the book may … or may not … eat other characters. An anteater and an ant. A grizzly bear and a boy. You get the idea.
