"This wonderfully laid-out, practical book explores ways of getting
students interested in poetry." - CHOICE
"As a veteran teacher, I prided myself on being a 'poetry teacher.'
After all, we memorized poems, tried to figure out what they meant,
and even devoted a unit to the study of poetry. Haiku, limericks,
color poems and fill-in-the-blank poems were just a few types we
explored. However, it wasn’t until I started reading this book that
I discovered the true magnetic force of the written word. -
