Download or read book 101 Poems for Children written by Nicole Crosbourne and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a compilation of poems aimed at children and young teens. It covers a wide range of genres with short poems suitable for children under 10 years old, to longer story-based poems and abstract poems that can be left open to interpretation. Its aim is to encourage reading and to share everyday experiences in a way that is easy to understand. Many of these poems are inspired by my memories from actual situations, and others are made up. I find that writing poetry is a way of capturing certain ideas, hopes, and dreams and a way to entertain others. I hope that by reading this you will understand these and enjoy imagining different scenarios even in your own life. This is a unique collection of poems as they can be read not only for children but are suitable for the whole family. Some of which are humorous, and others have a more thoughtful tone to highlight subjects that can generate discussion and overall project different perspectives on life. I hope you will enjoy reading these and share them with others as I have shared them with you.
