Come In! Come In!: Wordspinners to Welcome You Home

Perfect for fans of A Hole Is to Dig by Ruth Krauss and Maurice Sendak, here is a cozy yet witty collection of short poems about everyday objects that will inspire a love of language in readers ages 3-7.

In this inventive collection of poems, author Irene Latham invites readers to take off their shoes and wander around a wide variety of houses, meeting everyday objects with newfound wonder. These short, thoughtful poems are wordspinners--a new poetry form invented by the author that delightfully defines a word by spinning together its sound and function.

Charmingly illustrated by award-winning Amy Hevron, Come In! Come In! is a poetic celebration that young readers will want to savor over and over.
