PRAISE

Summer Feet will have you wiggling your naked feet to the delightful tongue-twisting lip-slippery rhymes of one of Canada’s favourite writers. You’ll want to sink your feet into wet-wormy squeal-squirmy dark cocoa earth, march through the middle of mudlicious puddles or splash-dash into the water with your flutter-kicking, dog-paddling, splash-you-back summer feet. Fisher’s illustrations are just as lively as Fitch’s text and you’ll want to read this magical book over and over again.

––Jeffrey Canton, The Globe and Mail

“In this joyful, exuberant, nostalgic ode to summer, beloved poet/word artist Sheree Fitch and highly acclaimed illustrator Carolyn Fisher capture the wonders of the season, from the moment our eager summer feet dare to burst forth in all their barenaked glory!

Sheree Fitch’s effervescent verse leaps off the page; it revels and romps in seemingly carefree abandon...Fisher’s warm and vibrant mixed-media illustrations are equally energetic, bringing an added layer of richness to these rhymes. Brilliant, swirling colours, expressive faces and lots of big and busy feet fill each page, vividly rendering the joy that is at this story’s heart.”
