A Visit to William Blake's Inn
by Nancy Willard
Review this book!
Inspired by the work of poet William Blake, this book of poetry creates a world in which Blake runs an inn inhabited by very unusual guests. Staffed by dragons, angels, and a rabbit, the inn welcomes such visitors as the Man in the Marmalade Hat, the King of the Cats, a wise cow, a bouquet of tired sunflowers, and a tiger requesting a bedtime story. Winner of the 1982 Newbery Medal.

First Line
This inn belongs to William Blake/and many are the beasts he's tamed/and many are the stars he's named/and many those who stop and take/their joyful rest with William Blake.
