#SummerSouls Day 23: There is an intimacy in Fogliano‘s verses here, with the constant “if you were.. and i was…” accompanied by such powerful imagery by Loren Long. It‘s like every page has a sigh, an exhalation, an unexpected gasp that tilts one‘s world a bit, allowing the reader to glimpse a different world of beauty, longing, and glowing #fireflies.

#JamminJune Day 3: There is a gentle, lulling, quiet #whisper in her turns of phrase that affect me viscerally, which makes me regard Julie Fogliano as the Mary Oliver of kidlit. I have read this book countless of times by now, and each time I feel like my heart is caught in my throat. There is childlike awe here, something devastatingly brilliant, filled with moonshine.
