Cats and Bats and Things with Wings by Conrad Aiken
Cats and Bats and Things with Wings is a miraculous story about poems. One poem about the owl is extraordinary. One about the rhinoceros is phenomenal. The pictures are made of different fabrics. This book is about animal poems. This is an awesome book! If you like books about animals, and wild animals you might like this book. I recommend this story because it’s a cool book, loving of animals, and this book is for you. This is an outstanding book! 
I give this book stars!

In this splendid and playful volume, acclaimed poetry anthologist Paul B. Janeczko and Caldecott Honor illustrator Chris Raschka present lively examples of twenty-nine poetic forms, demonstrating not only the (sometimes bendable) rules of poetry, but also the spirit that brings these forms so wonderfully to life.

 

Nightmares: Poems to Trouble Your Sleep by Jack Prelutsky 
Nightmares is a good story about haunted places and scary stories mixed into good poems. The problem is a big giant is eating little kids and other kids try to stop it. The kids try to explain to the adults, but they won’t listen. Judy, and Charlose try to stop him. They go into the moist cave and creak in every step. The rest is for you to look up… but be careful ounce you enter… There’s no turning back!!! If you like books about mysterious creatures you might like this frightful book. I recommend this book, because its mysterious, scary, and you will not know what will happen next… This is a horrifying book, I give it stars.

Hoop Queens by Charles R. Smith, Jr. 
811 SMI
Hoop Queens is an all star book about poetry. It is about the WNBA all stars and they have poetry about each basketball player. If some one makes a slam dunk, the picture looks like a slam dunk. Each looks like what is going on in the poem. Each poem is different so each picture is different. It has poems of different teams. If you like books about basketball you might like this good book. I recommend this story because it is very good. 
This is an interesting WNBA Basketball book, I give it stars.
