Wonderment

Exploring the countryside with an acute understanding of Mother Nature’s magic, Wonderment is a beautiful anthology of seasonal poetry, written and illustrated by Sherry L. Ross. ‘The ache of spring is undeniable. It hurts before it sings.’ Out in the American fields, skunk cabbages sprout like hooded baby goblins; arrow-like herons emerge with fish in their beaks; and fireflies return to the deep shadows of a summer night. Wonderment is a beautiful anthology of seasonal poetry, written and illustrated by Sherry L. Ross. Exploring the countryside with an acute understanding of Mother Nature’s magic and inspired by centuries of woodland and pastoral folklore, Ross’s words and images capture a genuine sense of awe, as light and dark come and go and each season in turn bends the landscape to its will. Having previously authored the charming children’s book Return of the Vinetropes, Ross is well placed to convey the innocent wonders of the natural world in this imaginative and visually stunning collection. Perfect for fans of all things wild and wonderful. "This gorgeous book is brimming with forest enchantments. Sherry L. Ross is equally dazzled and keen-eyed as she takes in the natural world season by season, celebrating faery folk and flowering flora, secret portals and thrashing summer storms, glimmering water sprites and all manner of woodland animal. Wonderment is, above all, about slowing down and taking in the magic—and joy—of every moment. You’ll want to savor Ross’s lyrical poems and charming drawings; they’re pure pleasure." - Carolyn Turgeon, editor-in-chief and co-owner of Enchanted Living Magazine
