"Not just kids' poems. There's some really good stuff in here. Also some disturbing poetry you may want to discuss with your kids. (Where's Lulu?) Arranged in a way to introduce the elements of poetry; to encourage appreciation or even authorship."
"At last, a poetry book that doesn't insult the intelligence of children. No silly doggerel here. Just good poems by good poets that will appeal to children of all ages."
"This is another book I use in my classroom to teach poetry. The book is formatted in a way to give an introduction to figurative language and other important parts of poetry. Which each lesson is also a handful of pertinent poems. I have fun reading it and thus teaching from it."
Curricular Use: Introduces children to poetry. Afterword to adult on how to use the book with children.
Literary Elements: Split into three sections: What do poems do? What's inside a poem? Special types of poems. Brief introduction to start each section. Some poems followed by context for the poem to help reader understand the poem.
Additional Notes: Good variety on choice of poems and great for classroom use as separated into sections for examples. Did not like section on haikus, not adequately explained or given specifics of."
