Today (a day early) I kicked off Nat'l Poetry Month with some of our 1st graders. After reading some funny poems, we talked about imagery and how a good poem can help you see and feel in a more powerful way. We concluded with a cute rhyming book called A Sock is a Pocket for Your Toes by Elizabeth Garton Scanlon. It is filled with sentiments such as: "A cone is a pocket for ice cream." "A pond is a pocket for ducks." "My heart is a pocket for love." One little boy raised his hand and said, "I've got one. My heart is a pocket for Jesus." Such sweetness. Then another hand shot up and a boy said enthusiastically, "I have one too! My underwear is a pocket for my butt." Only in the library can we have this much fun! -- Gail Brubaker, Librarian srvca.library@comcast.net San Ramon Valley Christian Academy Danville, CA - www.srvca.org -------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note: All LM_NET postings are protected by copyright law.
