Synopsis:
An Indie Poetry Bestseller and Nautilus Award Winner!
Crews, a fine poet and teacher, appears to have a Midas touch when it comes to gathering wonderful poems and growing popular anthologies.
--Naomi Shihab Nye, Young People's Poet Laureate
Following the success and momentum of his anthology How to Love the World (over 90,000 copies in print), James Crews's new collection, The Path to Kindness, offers more than 100 deeply felt and relatable poems from a diverse range of voices including well-known writers Julia Alvarez, Marie Howe, Ellen Bass, Naomi Shihab Nye, Alberto Ríos, Ross Gay, and Ada Limón, as well as new and emerging voices. Featured Black poets include January Gill O'Neil, Tracy K. Smith, and Cornelius Eady. Native American poets include Kimberly Blaeser, Joy Harjo (current U.S. Poet Laureate), and Linda Hogan. The collection also features international voices, including Canadian poets Lorna Crozier and Susan Musgrave. Presented in the same perfect-in-the-hand format as How to Love the World, the collection includes prompts for journaling and exploration of selected poems, a book group guide, bios of all the contributing poets, and stunning cover art by award-winning artist Dinara Mirtalipova. A foreword by Danusha Laméris, along with her popular poem "Small Kindnesses," is also included.
About the Author: James Crews is the editor of several books, including The Wonder of Small Things (a USA Today bestseller), The Path to Kindness, and How to Love the World, which has over 100,000 copies in print.

He has been featured in The Washington Post, The Boston Globe, The New York Times Magazine, People Magazine, The Christian Science Monitor, and on NPR's Morning Edition.
