Button Up: Wrinkled Rhymes, by Alice Schertle and illustrated by Petra Mathers, is adorable! A book full of mask poems, which I love, all told from the points of view of different articles of clothing. I was going to share "Tanya’s Old T-Shirt," but Tricia already shared it at The Miss Rumphius Effect. So then I was going to share another favorite, "Jennifer’s Shoes," but Elaine at Wild Rose Reader already shared that one. These ladies have great taste! So here’s yet another poem I love from this book: Bertie’s Shoelaces Good old Bertie, –Alice Schertle, all rights reserved |
