Poem for Children



Title: Runny Babbit Returns: Another Silly Book
Author: Shel Silverstein

This book is composed of 41 poems that are accompanied by silly, fun drawings. This poetry book is full of tongue-twisting words and creative characters. Anything by Shel Silverstein is something that you should have in the classroom. This book is enjoyable for children of all ages and shows that poetry does not have to be confusing and full of big words, it can also be fun and playful.

Rating: 5/5
Like I just said, I think that this book really shows children that poetry is not as complicated and sophisticated as they might think. Poetry can be fun and silly, and I think that reading a book like this or reading poems like these to students will help encourage their love for poetry. If you haven’t read this or anything else by Shel Silverstein, you are missing out and should definitely give it a shot!!
