Tharen K, Reviewer
Spooky Poems Aloud is a great book that introduces poetry to children. Not only does it have examples, but it breaks down the different types into easy concepts that are easily understood. It asks probing questions and encourages with steps for children to try their own hand. It even recommends other forms of art, such as drawing or using their imagination. And the poems are cute!
The illustrations are nice and fit with the theme of the book.
This is fantastic to use in a classroom or for homeschooling, in addition to being used in the home.
