It’s National Poetry Month!

Today’s featured book is BoshBlobBerBosh by J. Patrick Lewis

This is a biography of sorts about Edward Lear–poems about his life, written in his style. What I love about this collection is that it doesn’t narrate his whole life–rather it’s a glimpse of a collection of moments in a life. Poetry is so good at that.

Classroom Activity: Write a poem about a pivotal moment in a famous person’s life.
