Poems about Family by America’s Children

A poem is an amazing thing. In a few lines or even words, it can speak volumes. A child is likewise remarkable. On this earth just a short time, yet he or she can possess the world’s wisdom as well as its joys and sorrows. In this stunning series of five anthologies – Poems about Anger, Family, Friends, Myself and School – elementary school children reveal a profound depth of emotion and awareness about themselves and the world around them.The books are introduced by a teacher, who has watched editor Jacqueline Sweeney lay open the creative process to children. Each book is enhanced by a full and diverse array of children’s original artwork. Sometimes disturbing, always thought provoking, Kids Express will fascinate children and adults alike.
