Original children's poetry by William Conelly, with imaginative illustrations by Nadia Kossman.

"As a children's librarian, I'm always looking for poetry that speaks to the everyday experiences of kids, and this new collection by William Conelly does just that. From digging for worms with a teaspoon to imagining the moon as lemon candy, these 14 poems capture the daily delights of a young boy named Tommy in his rural home West of Boston.

With playful descriptions of toys and riddles that are reminiscent of the poems of A. A. Milne, and invitingly colourful illustrations by Nadia Kossman, this collection vividly recreates the joy of childhood."
