Current Theme Song (aka what's playing on my ipod right now): Art of Motion by Andy McKee.
To end National Poetry Month, I had to go with an all-time favorite of mine - Instructions by Neil Gaiman. And can you imagine to my delight (and squealing. Yes, there was very much squealing involved) when I found out that this poem was being turned into a picture book? And they made a video of it and had Neil Gaiman narrate it? I love that man's voice. That makes for a situation of win all around, and one awesome Feature Fun Friday. Have a great weekend everyone!
(And here is a wonderful and fascinating evolution of Charles Vess' sketches to Neil Gaiman's poem Instructions, from pencil to finished product).
Awesome - Andy Mckee and Neil Gainman in one post - v cool
