Celebrate Poetry Break Day

Today is Poetry Break Day!  (It’s also Rubber Ducky Day, but we don’t have any rubber ducky books.)

Across the country, poets and poetry fans are taking poetry breaks — and this year is a double dose, since it’s also time for the regular Poetry Friday activities.

So here’s a start for you — a poem from our most recent book of poems for kids, A Funeral in the Bathroom and Other School Bathroom Poems by Kalli Dakos, illustrated by Mark Beech.
