Original, inspiring and intimate, When Poems Fall From the Sky marries science and poetry to create a tender and thoughtful love-letter to Earth promising children a riot of imagination, humour and joy – the perfect book to celebrate National Poetry Day on 6th October.
The collection of poems, raps, rhymes, haiku and little plays is written by Zaro Weil, winner of the 2020 CLiPPA children's poetry prize and is illustrated in full colour throughout by artist Junli Song.
When Poems Fall From the Sky is the first title to publish since the pair won the coveted CLiPPA prize with their stunning poetry anthology, Cherry Moon.
In exquisitely illustrated full-colour pages, trees, birds, animals, rivers, flowers, mountains and insects each share their own magical stories. And the stories they tell, the 'poems' that fall from the sky, subtly and powerfully illuminate our hope and collective role as guardians of our earth.
Zaro Weil (Author) Zaro Weil lives in southern France with her husband, two sheepdogs, alongside a host of birds, insects, badgers, wild boars, crickets, donkeys, goats, hares and loads more. She has been a lot of things - dancer, theatre director, actress, poet, playwright, educator, quilt collector, historian, author and publisher. Her poetry for children has appeared in many anthologies. Zaro's Cherry Moon won the CLiPPA Award for outstanding children's poetry in 2020. Junli Song (Illustrator) Junli Song studied economics and international development at the University of Chicago, USA, and then at the University of Oxford, UK, before radically changing course to study for an MA in Children's Book Illustration at Anglia Ruskin University, UK. On completion in 2018 she won a fellowship at Spudnik Press, a printmaking collective in her home town of Chicago, and she is currently studying for a Masters in Fine Art.
