In and Out the Window is a sweetly written and well curated collection of poetry by Jane Yolen. Due out 12th March 2024 from Penguin Random House on their Philomel children's imprint, it's 208 pages and will be available in hardcover, audio, and ebook formats.
Although this collection is aimed at young readers, there are beautiful and lyrical moments for all ages to be found here. Poetry is often a joy to read and these poems, from a beloved and prolific author, are curated carefully and very well.
The poems are accompanied by simple and appealing line drawings by Cathrin Peterslund. They enhance and support the text very well. The whole is appealing, engaging, and comforting.
Four stars. It would be an excellent choice for public or school library acquisition, for home use, and a beautiful edition for gift giving purposes.
Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.
