About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is deep in a world of make-believe and you want to nurture that creative spark through language. This anthology serves as a bridge between the physical world and the boundless realm of 'what if' by providing a curated collection of poems that celebrate the logic of imagination. From sailing on beds to flying through the clouds, the poems validate a child's inner life and their need for wonder. While the collection includes classic voices like Robert Louis Stevenson and Percy Bysshe Shelley, it remains accessible for modern children by including playful works from Shel Silverstein and Eve Merriam. It is an ideal choice for a bedtime wind-down or a rainy day activity, encouraging children ages 5 to 11 to see the magic in their everyday surroundings and realize that their thoughts can take flight anywhere.
