An Assortment of Animals: A Children’s Poetry Anthology


An illustrated collection of original poems about animals from New England authors and artists, An Assortment of Animals: A Children’s Poetry Anthology captivates the imaginations of young readers. Undiscovered poets’ and illustrators’ work sits side by side with never-before-seen work of accomplished authors and artists like Jane Yolen, Brian Lies, and Josh Funk. The anthology takes the reader on a journey from funny to poignant and wistful to thrilling. The animals range from anteater to vulture, the poetry from limerick to free verse, and the art from dreamy watercolor to humorous digital drawing.

Published by The Writer’s Loft Press.

REVIEWS: Amazon customer says, “This is a lovely collection of work from a group of talented writers and illustrators – but mostly, it’s just fun! Great to read aloud with kids, who will certainly find their own favorites – pangolins, albatross, flamingoes – poems and pictures both!”
