20 Little Poems for 20 Little Gnomes by Raven Howell, Illustrated by Nazli Tarcan

Sometimes the wisest of words are found between the pages of a children’s book. With its lilting prose and uplifting message, Howell’s book of poems for middle age readers is entertaining.

Easy and uncomplicated, the topics and the words she used to explain painful emotions and life events — Should you Fall, The Hug Poem, Smile, will effortlessly charm the young readers and probably get them to memorise the poem.

I simply adore Tarcan’s illustrations for the book. They easily express and elevate the poems. The light colours, the touch of whimsy in the woodland creatures, the bright splash of colours for nature and emotions, incandescently matched by the poems.

The poems journey through the seasons, from spring right through summer, monsoon, autumn, and winter. Poems of Summer Linger, Boys in Berries, and Spring and the Winter Goblin are particularly enchanting.

The book is a perfect accompaniment to bedtime reading or a reading in the park at a picnic.

The 20 Little Poems for 20 Little Gnomes includes a variety of different poem and rhyme types. It's also beautifully illustrated and children would like to look for all the hidden details. This would be a great poetry introduction for older elementary students.

Thanks to Handersen Publishing and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.

Beautiful illustrations and thoughtful poems! The author creates magical and sweet poems from simple moments in life as well as things that would be found in the imagination of a child. The illustrations are colorful, yet simple. This would make a great beginning poetry book for elementary aged children.

I've recently become a little obsessed with gnomes, so when I saw this book I had to request it. It's a beautifully illustrated book of lovely, positive little poems. I thought it was utterly charming, and ended up reading half the poems out loud to my husband. I would buy this book as a gift for a friend with a new baby, or for an early (1s, 2nd or 3rd) birthday present. Utterly charming.

I was given an e-Arc of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This is such a beautiful book full of beautiful poems and illustration. My only complaint is that it is a bit too short. Wish it were a longer book.

I was given a free copy of this from NetGalley for my honest review.

I honestly thought this was the cutest little book. The poems are adorable and they also have some of the cutest pictures to go with them. If you have a beginning reader I would definitely recommend this as a book to read to your own littles or even get them started on their love of reading.

This is an adorable addition to a child’s bookshelf, with short poems that can be read all together or by themselves. Primary school children will have fun reading the book themselves and smaller kids will enjoy having this read to them. My favourite poem was The Hug Poem and all the illustrations are beautiful and whimsical.

Thank you to Handerson Publishing and NetGalley for the digital copy in exchange for an honest review.

This was a cute little picture book with poems about gnomes. The gnomes were in all different kinds of situations, all of them seeming to enjoy their surroundings. Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this.

Thank you to the author, Raven Howell, the illustrator, Nazli Tarcan, the publisher, Handersen Publishing, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this lovely children's picture book with cozy poems of different weather events. I will share my review to Amazon, Goodreads, and Barnes & Noble upon release. I immediately thought the cover looked cute, with the little details of the room with gnome hats spread about. I thought all the illustrations were really unique and interesting, I loved the watercolor look. I especially liked the page for Snowflake Song, with the girl with snowflakes around her. This picture is just so cute. All of the poems will allow children and their adults to reflect on the seasons and the changes they bring for us, including the special activities we can enjoy with our friends and family. This was a super fun book! I would recommend!
