The Dog Ate My Homework: Poems

Sara Holbrook

Boyds Mills Press

In these four collections of verse (The Dog Ate My Homework, I Never Said I Wasn't Difficult, Am I Naturally This Crazy? and Which Way to the Dragon!), Sara Holbrook deals honestly with issues facing adolescents: school, divorce, anger, violence, love, friendship, and self-esteem. Through her straight-talk style, Holbrook captures the joys, pains, and attitudes that preteens and teenagers feel and provides a message of understanding that readers will appreciate.

I Never Said I Wasn't Difficult

Bt Bound

Take a wild ride with poet Sara Holbrook as she guides young writers in performing their poetry with style and pizzazz. With enthusiasm and a touch of irreverence, Ms. Holbrook, a performance poet herself, explains how to use voice, rhythm, attitude, movement, and other techniques to perform poetry in a group, duo, or solo. More than thirty poems are included for young readers to practice, as well as instructions for putting on a poetry jam at school or in the community.

Teen & Young Adult

Literature & Fiction

Jump into this true collaboration between a sproinky artist and two wry and whimsical poets who weave their work together in this quirky but relatable poetry collection for kids or anyone who has ever been a kid. Poems ask essential questions: Will my ears grow long like grandpa's? Where does the sky begin? And can dogs get low self esteem? Middle grade and up.
