[Laree Brown · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a great poetry book. There are poems about certain types of food, eating the food, and making the food. It will be an excellent book for students to learn poetry, measurements, and what ingredients it takes to make some of their favorite dishes.

This is book full of poems about food, it also has poems that are made by children. This is a great book to use when teaching your children about poetry and it could help inspire them when they are writing their own poems.
