A Visit to William Blake's Inn

Poems for Innocent and Experienced Travelers

De: Nancy Willard

Narrado por: Stuart Blinder

Inspired by William Blake's work, Nancy Willard has written a book of magical poems about life at an imaginary inn, run by none other than William Blake himself.

The inn is staffed by two mighty dragons that brew and bake, two angels that wash and shake the feather beds, and a rabbit who shows visitors to their rooms. Among the remarkable guests are the man in the Marmalade Hat; the King of Cats, who writes his wife not to "grow fat like a common kitchen cat"; and two sunflowers who demand a room with a view.

Great bedtime poetry

If you could sum up A Visit to William Blake's Inn in three words, what would they be?

Very pleasant poetry. I often listen to it, and I'm all grown up. Nancy Willard wrote many other enjoyable books. Hope some of them will become Audible books as well.

I loved William Blake so I bought this.

It was great; I am still repeating it to get the references to William Blake’s work. I am a huge fan of his and I love seeing how others use his work in their own.

Wonderful

I was so happy to find this on audible. The poems were great and can be enjoyed by everyone.

Newberry????

This was voted best children’s book of the year by whom? Its age range is 4-7? Nope. And nope. Very disappointed in the book. While it is only 23 mins long… it is not worth the listen. Perhaps this book is better in text.
