EMILY STEW WITH SOME SIDE DISHES

Author (last name first):
Rockwell, Thomas
Publisher, Date of Publication: 
Roaring Book Press/2010
Grade Level/ or Age Level: 
4th-6th
Classification:
Fiction   



Collection of poems in which a young girl named "Emily" is the main character. In each poem Emily has a different last name "Emily Cut Purse", "Emily Tears, Emily Tatner" in each poem which is associated with the poem topic.  Cute topics for advanced readers, but lower grades would enjoy hearing them also. Written in free verse it is more story like. Illustrations are simple pen and ink and add interest without  drawing attention from the poem.
