Today I invited contributors of THANKU: POEMS OF GRATITUDE to share their work with you today. This picture book, beautifully illustrated by Marlena Myles and edited by Miranda Paul, is something really special and I credit that to the exceptional list of contributors that made it possible. Each poet used a different poetic style and each gives thanks in a uniquely personal way, but I’ll let them tell you about that. Contributors on today’s episode (as they appear): Joseph Bruchac Kimberly Blaeser Padma Venkatramen Janice Scully Charles Waters Carole Lindstrom Carolyn Dee Flores Sarvinder Naberhaus JaNay Brown-Wood Diana Murray Megan Hoyt Jamie McGillen Vanessa Brantley-Newton Traci Sorell Edna Cabcabin Moran Liz Garton Scanlon You can access even more information about this book and its author by visiting www.matthewcwinner.com/podcast.
