‘Enormous Smallness’, a debut work for children from Matthew Burgess with the artwork made by Kris Di Giacomo, in a beautiful way tells the life story of Edward Estlin Cummings, a known American poet, from his childhood back in the end of 19th century through his whole life in which he had become a recognized poet.

It's no coincidence that everyone seems to use the word "magic" to describe this perfect, playful, poetic gem of a book. It is completely delightful! And it's not just about poetry--but about blazing your own path, no matter what the world thinks. Now I have birthday presents covered for every enormous-small person in my life!!!
