BOTW ~ Tough Boy Sonatas


Since it's National Poetry Month, I'm featuring Tough Boy Sonatas by Curtis L. Crisler with illustrations by Floyd Cooper. Both School Library Journal & the American Library Association named this a Best Book! It's bittersweet poetry, with a real edge to it!
Elizabeth Alexander says this about the book: "These white-hot poems scream and sing, in the poet's words, 'I Am ALIVE,' at every juncture. What an ear, what an eye, and what heart has Curtis Crisler in this indelible first book.
