The Poesy Ring: A Love Story

40 pp. | Candlewick | December, 2018 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7636-9884-3 $16.99
(4) K-3 A ring lost in Ireland in 1830 ends up purchased by a couple in 1967 New York in this sweet tale about the passage of time and the endurance of love. The poetic text's deeper meaning may be lost on younger readers, but they will appreciate witnessing the ring's journey through time and place. Graham's moving illustrations are rendered with his usual light touch.
