Don’t judge this book by its cover. It looks rather babyish. While it is easy to understand and doesn’t harp on traditional concepts of poetry like rhythm and line structure or deep meaning, it does get a range of ages started in writing poetry for FUN. It also encourages reading poetry at your own speed. So, it’s a beginner’s book, but one that appeals to the reader on an emotional level. Just what a beginner needs to get started writing.
