Absolutely love your poem.

I've been collecting children's books for years, well before my daughter was born. I love the simplicity and innocence of them, and the lessons for both young and older in them.

Why not compile all those stories and poems in a Children's Book with illustrations? Perhaps incorporate those original drawings from grade 2, if ever found. Or, procure a professional illustrator.

Kids' books are a world of their own. Illustration styles change. Books are targeted to specific age groups (my poems and stories are all over the place). Publishers need to anticipate what the market will want next year: e.g., last year was magic elves, this year sustainability, next year non-binary dinosaurs?
