Notes: This week, I read Bob Raczka’s delightful children’s poetry book, Lemonade and Other Poems Squeezed from a Single Word. Raczka uses only the letters in the word he’s chosen to create the poem and then arranges the letters down the page in the order that they appear in the word. This gives an interesting visual effect that I found pleasing.
This is really neat. I love how it challenges what I think of as poetry – and yet it clearly is poetry. And now I have another book to read!
What fun is this!
I love this! I will have to try it….thanks for the book rec too!
Once again, so impressed with this poem! It is amazing how playing with letters can make such a dramatic difference!
Love this so much that I had to look up the book and give it a try.

Not sure if it works. I had on my desk “Tuck Everlasting”.
This book has come to my attention a few times in this month of poetry. I think I’m going to have to check it out!
