First edition of Climb Into My Lap: First Poems to Read Together, a well curated collection of poems selected for children.
Various authors. Selected by Lee Bennett Hopkins. Illustrated by Kathryn Brown. First edition, 1998. Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers.
From the jacket:
"Here...are poems that speak directly to youngsters about their budding independence, as poets explore everything from the instant a child declares "see, I can do it all myself" to a range of favorite "Secret Places". Most of all, here are poems about children's special relationships with family and friends."
Lee Bennett Hopkins (1938 - ) is an educator, poet, author, and anthologist.
Award-winning artist Kathryn Brown (1955 - ) has illustrated many children's books, including Tough Boris, Eeny Meeny Miney Mole, From Lullaby to Lullaby, and When Moon Falls Down. Her artwork for Climb Into My Lap is beautiful.
