Product Description
Product Description
An essential source of inspiration for anyone looking to welcome the new child to the world
Book Description
There is no way more appropriate to mark a new arrival than with poetry -- and in this profoundly celebratory book, poet and columnist Kate Clanchy has made an inspired choice of poems that speak powerfully of the wonder, joy, bewilderment and mystery that new life brings. Charting the whole process from conception through to pregnancy and birth, All The Poems You Need to Say Hello is perfect for expectant parents -- and an ideal gift for new parents. Poems from across the centuries by men and women -- from Sharon Olds, Sylvia Plath and Helen Dunmore to Seamus Heaney, Hugo Williams and William Blake -- chart the whole experience, mirroring the ups and downs and moments of despair and joy.

Just prior to the birth of my first grandchild, I bought this for my daughter, a graduate in English. Knowing she was (and is) keeping a personal journal, I thought this might inspire her to more writing as well as revealing what other mothers had experienced at this emotionally charged, momentous time in their lives with so many ambivalent feelings.
