Atrocious Poems A to Z explores the everyday injustices of childhood through a collection of humorous poems and illustrations that take children's complaints very seriously indeed. From monsters under the bed to the tyranny of naps, each poem examines a different childhood "atrocity" while introducing readers to the rich world of poetry and language. Along the way, young readers will encounter literary devices such as personification, paradox, portmanteau, alliteration, metaphor, and more—presented through engaging poems written in a variety of traditional forms. Equal parts poetry collection, literary playground, and educational adventure, Atrocious Poems A to Z offers a fun and memorable introduction to the tools writers use to make language sing. Perfect for curious readers, aspiring poets, teachers, and parents, this delightfully rebellious alphabet of complaints proves that learning about poetry can be just as entertaining as arguing against bedtime.
