"Poetry for children should convey the experiences and perceptions of the child in a way that is meaningful and not condescending, didactic, or simplified." - The Joy of Children's Literature.

| Mason and I with the Marine Science Kids |
I was reading the book Ocean Soup for my annotated bibilography and my friend Mason from camp picked the book up from me and started reading. He put a personality and rhythm behind the words that I had been reading and it was HILARIOUS! We both agreed that this would be a wonderful book to share with our Marine Science campers. These are the campers that come to camp to learn about nature and all the animals that live in the salt marsh! They get to spend the night in the North Carolina Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores and go on a troller boat. This book would really appeal to these kids and convey a meaningful experience.
