This is a poetry book about poetry. Our main character takes us on her journey of creating, or writing, her poem. Using poetic inspiration, we follow her as her words spill out, scatter, and even grow, until it reaches fruition as a POETREE.

This books is a creative, fun, active and full of rhyming words and puns to be deciphered by the reader. There is a great section in the back which asked the reader to identify rhyming and mixed up words. Also, additional websites such as www.poets.orge/national-potetry-month/poem-your-pocket-day and more.

The illustrations add to the magic of the book. Our young poet is a person of color who takes us through the city, an urban playground, and a lush garden. The magic of imagination and language combine with the lovely pictures to create a book that feels good and stimulates our brains. Recommended! Especially for teachers or parents who participate in National Poetry Month in April.
