Summary of Book:
This is a good book. It is about a little boy named Jack who starts off slow writing poetry, but becomes very good at it. He writes about his dog and is inspired by his favorite poet. However, he originally thought that boys shouldn't write poetry. This is a book that I will definitely read to my classroom when introducing poetry. I can relate to the little boy in this book because I used to think that only certain people were talented enough to write poetry. This is not true, and this book illustrates that. This is a book that is easy to relate to for beginning poets or students who are just beginning to learn about poetry.
