ReplyDeleteLovely - I need to try this!
ReplyDeleteEach book's a treasure, and I love that you used them in your poems. How wonderful that is. I do love all these books, too.
ReplyDeleteOK, so these are great!! Love that you did a different twist on the normal book spine poem! :)
ReplyDeleteI love book spine poems. I love to see what books people use. I love to see what magic they perform with these. You have inspiring books and beautiful poems.
ReplyDeleteThese book spine poems are great! I never thought about professional text ones, but they turned out amazing!
ReplyDeleteHow interesting that a Penny Kittle book began each poem! She's one of my favorite reading and writing experts. I actually own all of these books except the last one in each poem (and don't tempt me. I'm trying to pare down,not add to). Love both of your book spine poems!
ReplyDeleteWell done!
ReplyDeleteSays so much!
Your books as well as your poem speak highly of your passion for teaching. Love it!
