Honest and engaging, award-winning author Jean Little´s beloved Hey World, Here I Am! is told in a series of poems, observations, and vignettes.
Kate Bloomfield has got a lot to say--about school and friends and parents, about cartwheels (she can´t do them), about parsnips (she won´t eat them), about being alone and being herself, about life and love...even about Dave Nelson, who doesn´t know she´s alive. Outspoken, funny, sometimes confused but always observant, Kate is writing it all down--"Hey World, Here I Am!"
