Wham! It's a Poetry Jam : Discovering Performance Poetry

Take a wild ride with poet Sara Holbrook as she guides young writers in performing their poetry with style and pizzazz.

With enthusiasm and a touch of irreverence, Ms. Holbrook, a performance poet herself, explains how to use voice, rhythm, attitude, movement, and other techniques to perform poetry in a group, duo, or solo.

More than thirty poems are included for young readers to practice, as well as instructions for putting on a poetry jam at school or in the community.
