It’s a book with concrete poems about a teenager making her way through high school and all the issues and things she experiences along the way. The way her emotions are told in the poetry is pretty funny. At one point you actually have to mirror the book in a mirror in order to read it properly! I thought it was a creative write up. It’s a good read for teens. ( )it looks very good from what i see "it's a good idea to carry a poem in your pocket. It's a little snack for your soul." This short volume of concrete poetry was really cute and had poetry from Jessie's point of view. She wants to be an artist and has struggles with friends and her annoying younger brother. The style made the poems interesting and interactive. I had to do a lot of moving the book around in order to read the work. I even had to stand in front of a mirror in order to read one of the poems. I enjoyed it! Blue Lipstick Concrete Poems by John Grandits is a very creative book that relates to real life situations for young adults. This poetry book has poems for a mothers birthday, cranky bad days, to volleyball practice. I thought this book was interesting to the creative writing styles and the way the author wrote the poems. Also, the illustration caught my attention. In a classroom, the students and I could make a conrete poem together and then the students could create one on their own. Required reading that I agree is original and creative, but not something I would gravitate towards necessarily. Possibly a recommendation for a sixth-grader with similar concerns and questions. no reviews | add a review
