"From celebrated children's poet and author Sheree Fitch and early childhood educator Anne Hunt comes this illustrated compendium of Atlantic Canadian poetry and verse for young readers. Spanning centuries, from Milton Acorn, Bliss Carman, and Rita Joe to Budge Wilson, Shauntay Grant, and Kathleen Winter, and a broad thematic scope-from soft lullabies and silly songs to poignant meditations on nature, loss, and love-over 100 poems from the region's best are sure to delight educators, parents, and young readers. With brilliant illustrations from acclaimed New Brunswick artist Lloyd Fitzgerald, Whispers of Mermaids and Wonderful Things is a feast for all senses."--
