Book Description
for A Visit to William Blake's Inn, A by Nancy Willard, Martin Provensen, and Alice Provensen
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
Stylized illustrations in an array of textures and warm harmonious browns/golds/grays/blues complement and extend the logical nonsense in a collection of whimsical, original poetry. The poems were inspired by Willard’s childhood experience with the poetry of William Blake. (1982 Newbery Medal Winner. 1982 Caldecott Honor Book) (Winner: CCBC Straw Caldecott Vote) (4-11 years)
