Starting your holiday shopping? If you’re looking for a nonfiction book, click here to see the signed, personalized books? (including a few rhyming ones, alphabet ones, and color-based ones) I sell through Amazon. Great gifts for teachers/classrooms:>) Thanks!
Now, on to today’s poetryaction!
I got this book as a surprise birthday present from a lovely poet in our 15 Words or Less community! So thoughtful and kind. I really had a good time focusing on sound effects for this one.

Poetryaction: After reading a picture book, sometimes I jot down a quick poem based on something in the book. It could be inspired by the entire book, the setting, a character, or even just a tiny detail in a picture or a single phrase from the text. I’m using picture books as a jumping off point for poems. I thought this might be something interesting for you to do in your classroom, so I’m going to share some of them here. I’m collecting them on a Pinterest board.
Bookalikes: A lot of times, when I’m reading a book, I think, “Oh, this would be fun to pair with XYZ book!” So I’m sharing those here when I think of them. These have their own bookalikes Pinterest board, too:>)

Our primary teachers will love this one, Laura, just right for the young ones “hearing” how they can write. Happy Thanksgiving!
Thanks, Linda. My poetryactions skew all over the place as far as younger/older, etc. It was fun doing a really young one here. Happy Thanksgiving to you, too!
