Joel & Lena's Book of Children's Poetry, (Paperback)

As a child, I loved reading poetry, but I did not do a good job of passing that love down to my children In 2016, I published my first book Magnolia Marwick: A Life in Poetry. I decided my next book would also be a collection of poems, but this time I directed it toward an audience of children. That same year, I was in a near fatal car accident, and the book sat on my computer for years. Recently, our family endured the most harrowing year of our life, and to top it off, we lost our beloved Siberian Husky, Sampson. I wanted to bring back a little innocence and magic to my children's lives. I wanted to make them feel proud of who they are. My children, and many Black children around the country have had to grow up too fast. This book is for all children. I hope it inspires a love of poetry and allows them to enjoy the magic of childhood a little longer.
