This warmly illustrated collection of poems, translated from the Dutch, captures the innocence, emotions, and observations of a young child. In “Big Feet,” the tow-haired girl delights in trampling over a snowy city like a giant in a snowsuit: “my new shoes / are so big / they’ll carry this girl / all over the world.” Wonderings about nighttime stars and the speed of time, wishes for the arrival of sunshine after rain or a new puppy, and worries about a skinned knee are a few of the topics explored in the cozy collection, perfect for lap-time reading. (Ages 4-7)
