Popcorn Astronauts is full of zany and delightful poems about food, and it put me in mind of one of my favorite desserts, bomboloni from Biaggi’s. My sister Patty and I always go get it when she comes up to visit from Florida. And we each get our own order. (We don’t even order a meal–just the dessert. For lunch.) With extra caramel rum sauce in a little carafe on the side. It. Is. Heaven. So I wrote my poetryaction about that.
And I paired it with one of only two books I’ve ever written that I don’t have a single copy of, Lettuce Introduce You, also poems about food.
Check out my Pinterest boards of poetryactions and bookalikes if you’d like to see more of either kidlit combo!
