This Is Just to Say: Poems of Apology and Forgiveness

48 pp. | Houghton | April, 2007 | Trade ISBN 978-0-618-61680-0 $16.00
(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Pamela Zagarenski. This book is a collection of "sorry poems" and responses, ostensibly (but not always believably) written, illustrated, and collected by a sixth-grade class. Though the poems are not as varied in tone or style as could be desired, they provide intimate, often touching glimpses of relationships by which real classes might be inspired.
