Book Description
Today You Are My Favorite Poet is a refreshing look at the art of poetry writing. It is also a vigorous exploration of a variety of approaches-involving form, style, content, and attitude. Hewitt offers proven strategies for writing and revision, provides definitions of a variety of poetic forms, suggests more than thirty writing exercises, outlines a thirty-week poetry curriculum, and best of all, provides numerous models (most of them written by teenagers), all thoughtfully selected to instill confidence in both teacher and student.
