The kids' magnetic poetry book and creativity kit - Dave Kapell

Discover the mind-popping pleasure of poetry. Draw pictures with words, feel the music of a sentence, and learn to look at life with a mental squint.

There's the poet's toolbox, with a little alliteration and the oomph of onomatopoeia, metaphor, simile, and to rhyme or not to rhyme. Game poems for groups—scramble poems, 'go 'round poems, automatic poems, and jigsaw poems—and the exotic classics—haiku, tankas, lunes, and lanterns. Plus getting the creative juices flowing, whether writing about your deepest feelings, secrets, and fears, or composing an ode to a favorite T-shirt.

With word tiles and composition board included, it's the book of instant fun.
