Following last season's Little Parsley, this new Hagerup volume was first published in Norway in 1971. At the time, it was a literary scandal for offering free verse to children, who were best suited, as the critics claimed, to the orderly rhymes of established poetic forms. Time and the inherently free and wild forms of youthful imagination have proven the critics completely wrong. Gorgeously illustrated by Paul Rene Gauguin, with his most antic line, as well as hand lettered, andplayfully translated by Beck Crook, this collection of Hagerup poems is pure pleasure. | That Summer by Inger Hagerup, Picture Books | Indigo Chapters
