pickThis was such a lovely collection of poems!
The books starts off with an Author‘s Note that gives some background into how the poems and book came together. I always appreciate these in poetry books because poetry is deeply personal so it‘s nice to have some context.

#SchoolSpirit #Poems This book of poems has been in print since 1916. I have fond memories of it from grade school, a teacher selected it to expose kids to poetry, see if they were interested in exploring more. I don‘t think it‘s ever been out of print, most libraries have at least an e book copy. It‘s also in the Internet Archive.

I think Shel Silverstien‘s work (& especially Where the Sidewalk Ends) was some of my first memorable exposure to poetry that I understood & enjoyed as a child. Here‘s two school related #Poems from two of his later books.
