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!"

Jean Little a publi? plus de 40 livres, dont plusieurs romans, albums, nouvelles, livres de po?sie et autobiographies. Plusieurs de ses ouvrages ont ?t? publi's ? l'?tranger. L'auteure reconnue a remport? de nombreuses r?compenses en plus d'?tre r?cipiendaire de six dipl?mes honorifiques et d'?tre membre de l'Ordre du Canada.
