Elizabeth Bishop (1911-1979) grew up to become a famous poet,
winning the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1956. Before that she was
a little girl who lived with her Gammie and Pa in Great Village,
Nova Scotia. It was there that Bishop learned to walk, to read, to
write, to sing hymns, and to catch bumblebees in foxglove flowers.
It was there she first went to school and, when she was five, where
her mother left and never returned. Lovingly rendered, this visual
and lyrical feast tells the story of Bishop's childhood days,
inspired by Bishop's own poetry and prose, paired with Quentin
Blake-style artwork from illustrator Emma FitzGerald. A love letter
to words, 'A Pocket of Time' is a lesson for young readers in
finding the poetry in everything.
