Just lovely! The fours seasons seen through a child's eyes. Everyday experiences that are special because you're young and the world is so full of excitement and beauty. The illustrations are charming and full of detail. I'm not always a fan of children's poetry collections but this one delighted me. Here's one of my favorites: The episode where the show’s producers arguably tried hardest to focus on a victim was the sixth, telling the story of how Tony Hughes fatally crossed paths with Dahmer. The episode ends with Dahmer cooking and eating Hughes’s liver after donating money to a search effort that his victim’s mother and other family members mounted after his sudden disappearance.This first book of poems is perfect for reading aloud and for a search through the pictures for lively kids, dogs, squirrels and birds. The mother of aspiring model Tony Hughes, who was among more than a dozen men murdered by Jeffrey Dahmer, has condemned the recently released Netflix series about the serial killer who took her son’s life, saying she doesn’t understand how the television show could be made.

Popular children's author to receive honorary degree – University of Liverpool". Liv.ac.uk. 8 July 2004 . Retrieved 26 January 2011. Shirley Hughes, "Word and Image", in M. Fearn, ed., Only the Best is Good Enough: the Woodfield Lectures 1978–85 (1985) He was sentenced to life in prison in 1992 and was beaten to death by a fellow inmate two years later at age 34.

The episode – titled “Silenced” – shows Hughes meeting Dahmer during a night out and striking up a relationship with him. The show implies that, as Hughes tries to leave after a night spent together, Dahmer murders him, possibly with a bloodied hammer. The author portrays poems through words and illustrations. I gave this book four stars because it introduces young readers to the various forms of poetry and messes with the equilibrium by making the statement: poetry isn’t just words that rhyme.
