This dazzling poetry collection bubbles with excitement and creativity, capturing the sheer joy of the natural world. Discover parades of beast-doodles, preposterous penguins, talking blossoms, playful birds, humble fleas and a host of other exotic and everyday creatures who jump off the page and into our hearts.
Thought-provoking, delightfully original and beautifully illustrated, Cherry Moon will encourage children of every age to explore the power, enchantment and wonderfulness of poetry and nature.
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.
