A great companion for Poetry Month lesson plans and as a read-aloud for anyone young or old who's ever felt stuck. Writing comes naturally to Poet. He's never had trouble deciding what to write next. But as the autumn festival approaches, Poet experiences a terrible case of smurfer's block. His ideas are all old and stale, and nothing he does will make the words come. Not even rearranging the entire house or starting with a fresh quill! Even worse, there's no potion that Papa can invent to cure this.Meanwhile, his friends are busy baking, sewing costumes, painting, and preparing for the festival. Can he find inspiration again before the big day?#1 New York Times bestselling author Robb Pearlman beautifully captures how frustrating it feels when inspiration flees, and how rewarding it is to open up to the creativity surrounding us. The iconic Smurfs village becomes even more beautiful and breathtaking with Melanie Demmer's cozy artwork and the arrival of fall.Want more adventures from The Smurfs?
