Happy Poetry Friday! (Wondering what Poetry Friday is? Click here.)
Today is the first day of my Meet My Family blog tour! And I’m so excited that educator Margaret Simon is hosting this first stop! The poetry her students write is amazing, and I can’t wait to see what they’ve done!
And I shared a calendar poem #poemsketch on Wednesday, so click here if you’d like to see that.
And for lots of wonderful poetry, don’t miss the Poetry Friday Roundup with Liz Steinglass!
Laura, my students loved your book and really threw themselves into producing good poetry for your blog tour. I hope you enjoy them. Thanks! https://reflectionsontheteche.com/2018/02/23/poetry-friday-meet-my-family/
The kids’ poetry is AMAZING, Laura! I am so blown away! Your book looks phenomenal, too. Congratulations!
Thanks, Becky! And, yes, Margaret knows how to grow poets!
Laura–I can’t wait to read it! Your poems about books and reading is one of my all-time favorites, so I am sure I will love this one too.
Thank you, Liz–BookSpeak was a pure joy to write!
I love a good collaboration! Seeing Margaret’s student’s work with your book is some of the best collaboration ever. Enjoy every moment of this book rolling out. It’s a winner!
Thanks, Linda. It’s always a complete honor to read student writing inspired in some way by my own writing. It’s that full circle feeling that fills my heart:>)
Can’t wait to hear more about your tour, Laura. Your book sounds like it will be a hit.
Thanks, Carol! We’ll see…I would love for its message of acceptance and inclusion to reach loads of kids:>)
I’m looking forward to reading your newest book! Margaret gave a delightful review that just teases my appetite, and the poems her students wrote were stupendous!
Thank you, Kay! And I know! Margaret’s amazing:>)
