b"Jill Trade provides us with two quick, but serious, poems that just might save your life. Sadly, her third poem details the fate of those who don't listen to warnings.

Jill Trade is married and the mother of three active boys, so she spends a lot of time at playgrounds imagining poetry, which she said she recently rediscovered. Her background includes training in meat cutting, which may influence her imagination.

Jill Trade's The Root Cellar, The Summer Camp and Perrydell's Hayride are read by Kit Pancoast Nagamura, an artist, writer and poet living in Japan."
