Lemonade, and Other Poems Squeezed from a Single Word

(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Nancy Doniger. In this volume, poet meets Scrabble nerd. Raczka makes poems from a single word by rearranging various letters from that word, anagram-style. Some are imagistic: moonlight is "hot / night / thin / light / moth / in / motion." Some are mini-narratives: friend is "fred / finds / ed." The concrete poem format makes you want to try some yourself.
