What better way to celebrate National Poetry Month than with some of my favorite Poets!
30 Poets 30 Days!
I almost swooned when I read through the post at GottaBook! I can’t tell you how excited I am to share this with the boys. Several of the participating Poets are ones we have familiarity with via our fall Poetry Club.
A serendipitously, wonderful way to celebrate National Poetry Month with my boys!
From GottaBook:
Every day in April, I’ll be posting a previously unpublished poem by a different poet. Here’s the alphabetical list of who’s participating:
Arnold Adoff, Jaime Adoff, Rebecca Kai Dotlich, Douglas Florian, Betsy Franco, Kristine O’Connell George, Charles Ghigna, Nikki Giovanni, Joan Bransfield Graham, Nikki Grimes, Mary Ann Hoberman, Lee Bennett Hopkins, X. J. Kennedy, Julie Larios, J. Patrick Lewis, Pat Mora, Kenn Nesbitt, Linda Sue Park, Ann Whitford Paul, Gregory K. Pincus, Jack Prelutsky, Adam Rex, Jon Scieszka, Joyce Sidman, Marilyn Singer, April Halprin Wayland, Janet Wong, and Jane Yolen.
I hear you on the swooning. When I got email in my inbox from some of these folks, I really didn’t even need to open it. I just kinda stared at it for awhile (but don’t tell them that!)
Glad you’re looking forward to 30 Poets/30 Days, and thanks for the link!
