In this magical tale a little girl takes young readers on a daylong journey through the treetops, sky and murky pond waters with the help of a magic willow. Five poems describe adventures that could certainly happen in your own neighborhood. Illustrations throughout the book are created using craft paper and willow branches. Recommended for readers ages 7-10. This book is inspired by a beautiful neighborhood willow tree and my own children and their limitless imagination. Written and illustrated in Olympia, WA in 2009-2011. First reviews are in! The poetry has beautiful, sing-song feel to it! It's very imaginative! A passage from the book:
My whole house is a beige-crème world,
And my grandpa's clock counts tick-tock,
The water drips, the stairs screech,
And I keep dreaming of a sandy beach. And another:
It was a high noon many summers ago
When a traveling wizard rested here just so.
He floated around on a giant lily pad,
And made the frogs sing with the magic he had. And another:
It will take me up high on a magical quest,
Where I'll float to the drowsy land of the West,
Where blue ribbons of rivers quietly run
Through the meadows lit by the tired sun. First kid to review my book: Dear, Katya I just wanted to tell you how magical and awesome your book was. Believe it or not, but that was probably the best book I have ever read. I love how you said that you would become a Princess up in the willow tree. I also loved how every paragraph had two words that rhymed. Your pictures were so cool it looked like something a professional would do. Thank you for letting me read your book. Sincerely, Jennessa.
