Cameron & Company Inc Starflower: The Making of a Poet, Edna St.
Book SynopsisA lyrical picture book biography about American poet Edna St. Vincent Millay’s childhood and the two sisters who inspired her Good things come in threes, like peas like wishes like sisters. Vincent—American poet Edna St. Vincent Millay—began writing and publishing poetry as a child. She grew up in coastal Maine with her two sisters and plenty of books, music, and nature, but often without parents—her father left home when they were young, and her mother, a nurse, traveled for months at a time to support them. Vincent and her two sisters often had to fiercely fend for themselves, from the daily to-do lists of keeping house, through bitterly cold winters and blight, which proved to be good fodder for indoor and outdoor adventures alike—and for poetry. Gorgeously illustrated by Jasmin Dwyer, Starflower is a poetic picture book biography as fiery and unconventional as Vincent herself.Trade Review“The authors’ imagery sings. Realistically rendered figures, calico-clad, long-haired, and White-presenting, cavort among stylized, sun-washed meadow flowers. An often lilting celebration of the poet’s early anchors and incipient artistic voyaging.” * Kirkus Reviews *

Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Foxlight: from the winner of the YOTO Carnegie
Book SynopsisFrom the author of October, October, winner of the Yoto Carnegie Medal, comes a heartbreaking and heart-warming story about sisterhood, found family and accepting love in the most unusual and unknown places. Fen and Rey were found curled up small and tight in the fiery fur of the foxes at the very edge of the wildlands. Fen is loud and fierce and free. She feels a connection to foxes and a calling from the wild that she's desperate to return to. Rey is quiet and shy and an expert on nature. She reads about the birds, feeds the lands and nurtures the world around her. They are twin sisters. Different and the same. Separate and connected. They will always have each other, even if they don't have a mother and don't know their beginning. But they do want answers. Answers to who their mother is and where she might be. What their story is and how it began. So when a fox appears late one night at the house, Fen and Rey see it as a sign - it's here to lead them to their truth, find their real family and fill the missing piece they have felt since they were born. But the wildlands are exactly that: wild. They are wicked and cruel and brutal and this journey will be harder and more life changing than either Fen or Rey ever imagined ...Trade ReviewLyrical, with a quality of fairytale - a finely crafted celebration of nature, sisterhood, stories and love * The Times *Beautifully poetic and steeped in the natural world * Sainsbury's Magazine *Beautifully written * The Week Junior *Quietly wild, richly thoughtful * The Guardian *Some books are set out as verse but never achieve the poetic.
