Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the fact that the book is a collection of poems themed alphabetically from A to Z. Why did the author choose that structure? Which poem was your favorite -- and why? Parents can also challenge their kids to pick a letter from the alphabet and try to write a poem of their own about a subject that starts with that letter. For a real challenge, try Q, X or Z!
