Under the Kissletoe: Christmastime Poems

(2) K-3 Illustrated by Rob Shepperson. Affable wit and infectious cadence bring fresh energy to traditional yuletide images. Employing a variety of poetic forms, Lewis limits himself to fairly simple rhyme schemes but keeps things lively with generous dollops of enjambment. Each poem is a study in expressing content through form. Shepperson's brightly shaded, borderline cartoony illustrations balance humor with warmth.
