Blog Alert! Kristen den Hartog's Trillium Book Award Series, Featuring Helen Guri

Trillium Book Award nominee Kristen den Hartog (And Me Among Them, Freehand Books) has invited her fellow Trillium 2012 nominees to write guest posts about children's literature for her wonderful blog, Blog of Green Gables. She writes, "Lately I’ve been wondering how my fellow nominees would muse about children’s literature. What books stayed with them from their childhoods, and why?"

In the newest contribution, poet Helen Guri (Match, Coach House Books) shares why she valued The Bunyip of Berkeley’s Creek by Jenny Wagner for its seemingly “nonsensical, incantatory quality.”
