Today is #EmpathyDay! Earlier this year we were delighted that Latvian children's poetry collection THE NOISY CLASSROOM was chosen for @EmpathyLabUK's #ReadForEmpathy booklist. Illustrator Vivianna Maria Staņislavska created this special image for today.
"Goose Fair Night is a juicy and vibrant collection of poems in which @kathy_pimlott’s insightful observations on family, age, work and life in the Midlands are brought to us wrapped in flavours, feelings and scents." Thank you @Poetry_Jar for this review: https://t.co/XyVv0XvdFa
In "The Dog Who Found Sorrow", our hero Dog manages to lift the spirits of the Sorrows. The book, which up to this point has been entirely grey, takes on shades of pink in @elinabraslina's illustrations, as the depression lifts at last. https://t.co/6vKyoti7Lm @LV_Literature
