Poet Spotlight: Deborah Ruddell

Deborah Ruddell is new to the world of children's poetry, but you'd never know it. Her two collections (A Whiff of Pine, A Hint of Skunk: A Forest of Poems and Today at the Bluebird Cafe: A Branchful of Birds) are both humorous and thoughtful. The best part is that we have both the collections in our holdings.

My Favorite poems from Today at the Bluebird Cafe:

•  "The Cardinal"
• "There's a Robin in the Bathroom"
• "The Kingfisher"
• "The Quail"
• "Bravo, Bobolink"
• "The Swan"

 My favorite poems from A Whiff of Pine, A Hint of Skunk:

• “Biography of a Beaver”
• “Moonlit Raccoon”
• “Nobody’s Pet (A Word to the Wise from a Red Fox)”
• “Chipmunks, INC”
