Poppy & Pa

by

Illustrated by Chelsea Peters 

 

Wonderful memories of summers at the lake!

 

Poppy & Pa by Kristyn Jewell is a lovely children’s book about the author’s memories of summers at the lake with her father and extended family. The narrative beautifully conveys the love and joy of time with those she loved, especially those special moments with the father who took the opportunity to share these impactful times with his young daughter. Readers can envision the reminiscences and almost feel the cool lake waters and summer breezes while listening to the sound of the loons across the lake, all dearly held within the author’s heart. 

Artist Chelsea Peters vividly illustrates the story with gorgeous images of the characters and everyday items decorated with whimsical folkish designs. 

I recommend POPPY & PA to elementary-grade readers and older folk looking for a lovely trip back in time or a lovely, fresh new selection for reading aloud to young listeners. 

I voluntarily reviewed this after receiving an Advanced Review Copy from the author through Goddess Fish Promotions Book Tours.
