How can we help children feel more confident? With poetry! Give children a daily dose of hope simply by sharing the 40 ekphrastic poems in this book. Inspired by a wide variety of diverse and inclusive black-and-white photos, these poems explore the many places where hope pops up in our lives: when we play a sport, water a garden, do volunteer work, visit a hospital, or even when we take a test.
This book is a Children's Book Council "Hot Off the Press" Selection for August 2023. This monthly list curated by the CBC features new titles that are identified as great resources for teachers, librarians, booksellers, and parents.
