These books provide young readers with clear models for understanding such common poetic forms as acrostics, cinquains, haiku, limericks, concrete poems, and free verse; definitions are appended at the back of each volume. Though the quality of verse is uneven, the examples are easy to follow. An uncluttered layout and many photographs increase appeal. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers these A+ Books: Poetry titles: And Then There Were Eight, Flashy, Clashy, and Oh-So Splashy, and Shrinking Days, Frosty Nights.
