Tom celebrates the intrigue of language, bringing well-loved and original poetry to life and weaving his magician’s skill into each poem or story. He invites the children to dive into language and enter into spellbound realms of possibility. In my many years of teaching young people, I have not seen a better way to enliven their imaginations or bring the magic of poetry directly to them. Indeed, Tom is a master of the Poet’s magic.
