Dark Emperor and Other Poems of the Night

Dark Emperor and Other Poems of the Night
In her latest book, Minnesota poet Joyce Sidman, features nocturnal animals and other sights and sounds of the woods at night.  Beautifully illustrated with linoleum cut designs by Duluth artist, Rick Allen, this is very comparable to Song of the Water Boatman, which won a Caldecott honor.  This will be an excellent classroom resource for elementary science classes.

It won a Newbery Honor in 2011. Fantastic news for Joyce Sidman.
