Book Speak! is a collection of poems all about books. There are a variety of different styles of poems. The poems in this book explore all the aspects of books. There are poems about the characters, the parts of a story, the people that help to make a book, parts of a book, and the list goes on. These poems provide interesting viewpoints on books in the form of poetry. This book would be best for middle to upper elementary students.
A Rock Can Be... is one poem told in a picture book. The illustrations have bright vivid colors that will attract the attention of the youngest elementary students. This simple poem explores all the different ways a simple rock can be used. A Rock Can Be... is a great introduction to poetry for the youngest readers. Each page has just a few simple words but it will engage their imagination.
Beautiful illustration and lively text teach about Thunderstorms.
