Lucy's Lopsided Web

When Lucy can't weave a perfect circle like all the other little spiders at web-weaving school, she dreams of a farm Grammy likes to tell her poems about. Together they visit the farm and Lucy gathers hand-dyed yarn threads from the weavers who live there and other treasures to create her lopsided perfect, and oh-so-fancy web.
Classic nature poems are introduced, including Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Mary Oliver's poem, "This World", reprinted in full by permission of the Charlotte Sheedy Literary Agency as agent for the author. Copyright@Mary Oliver2014 with permission by Bill Reichblum.
Whether read at home or in a classroom, Lucy's Lopsided Web is an inspiring celebration of the beauty of imagination and imperfection. As E.B. White once counseled: "But real life is only one kind of life - there is also the life of the Imagination."
