"Katydid's Poems" by Kate Slaughter McKinney is a collection of charming, magical, and simple poems that are full of heart. Positive topics like keeping a smile on your face and daydreaming are the prime focus of these poems. However, some of the selection is also deep and touching as well. Nature, joy, and love are three things everyone has in common, and this book is able to connect with readers around the world for that reason.
