The Hungry Snowman and Other Poems

The Hungry Snowman and Other Poems is the worthy grandchild of A Child's Garden of Verses. Creating an irresistible world out of exemplary, simple language, Tocco's poetry charms with portrayals of the smiling seasons, the raindrops, lazy clouds, and lightning bugs that call children to play outside. Ann Starr, Publisher of Upper Hand Press

These are nicely crafted, pleasing poems that young readers will enjoy, and that smaller children and adults can enjoy together. Tocco's poetry is sensitive to the changes in nature, with touches of humor and observations that will resonate with a child's own experience.

These poems are full of lovely imagery while remaining fun and accessible for children. This collection captures nature and the seasons and evokes childhood experience from baseball games to snow days in a way that both kids and parents will enjoy.
