Special Days

For years, author Alice Mohor has used her poetry to inspire children. The rhythm of her rhyming poetry has engaged hundreds of elementary school students in the concepts and principles of movement, the benefits of physical activity, and the joy of reading. This collection of poems, Special Days, showcases religious and secular holidays, cultural observances, and ordinary special days, all written from a child’s point of view. As any great teacher would, Alice strives for inclusion and has written poetry in celebration of holidays for various religions. Although they are capable of standing alone, the magic of her work can be most easily seen when an adult reads Alice’s poems aloud to a child.
