520 "There are, always, so many things to wonder about.
Elizabeth Bishop (1911-1979) grew up to become a famous
poet, but before that she was a little girl who lived with
her Gammie and Pa in Great Village, Nova Scotia. It was
there that Bishop learned to walk, to read, to write, to
sing hymns, and to catch bumblebees in foxglove flowers.
It was there she first went to school and, when she was
five, where her mother left and never returned. Lovingly
rendered, this visual and lyrical feast tells the story of
Bishop's childhood days, inspired by Bishop's own poetry
and prose and her time in Great Village, paired with
eclectic collage-style artwork from illustrator Emma
FitzGerald (EveryBody's Different on EveryBody Street). A
love letter to words, A Pocket of Time is a lesson for
young readers in finding the poetry in everything."--
