Miss Kristin's Pick of the Week


Love that Dog by Sharon Creech

Love that Dog is the story of a boy named Jack who struggles with poetry in school. Through exploring and mimicking other poets' styles, Jack learns to express himself and cope with the loss of his dog, Skye. This is an excellent book to encourage a child to write poetry.

"I guess it does
look like a poem
when you see it
typed up
like that."
