World Rat Day: Poems About Real Holidays You've Never Heard Of

40 pp. | Candlewick | March, 2013 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7636-5402-3 $15.99
(2) K-3 Illustrated by Anna Raff. Twenty-two obscure but entertaining holidays get their own poems, each one funny, playful, and even instructive. The poems vary in length and style, with a concrete poem in the shape of a flamingo for Pink Flamingo Day and five limericks in honor of May 12, Limerick Day. Raff’s ink washes and drawings feature animals with lots of personality.
