The Kingfisher Book of Family Poems was the second book I ever reviewed for Adoptive Families Magazine, and as such, it’s a sentimental favorite of mine.

If you’re looking for the perfect gift for someone with a new baby or newly adopted child, an Easter gift that the whole family will enjoy, or want to get an early start on Mother’s Day or Father’s Day shopping, this book is a great choice.

And, April is National Poetry Month! There’s no better time to order this book from Amazon, or check it out from your public library, and share a little poetry with your family.

Janet S. Wong is one of several big-name contributors to this book, and this book was my first introduction to her work. I’ve since become a fan. Her artful use of language (wow, that’s lame!) is beyond description. You have to read it to believe it, so…

Read with me!
