Words with Wings and Magic Things
Matthew Burgess, illustrated by Doug Salati
This illustrated collection gathers rhyming poems into seven loosely connected themes. Its poems play with the meanings of words while turning attention to ordinary things and imaginative possibilities. Doug Salati’s artwork includes both real creatures and mythical ones, and the book uses die-cut pages as part of its visual presentation. Words and pictures work together to invite dreaming, flight, and wonder.
