But as the book (which is made up entirely of Jack's poems) goes on, Jack figures out the secret of writing poems ("just make the lines short"). So, through poetry, he shares the story of his deceased dog and his love of author and fellow poet Walter Dean Myers. A very quick read. Funny and sad. Sharon Creech seems to get into the head of her main character and let him write great poetry without making him sound overly sophisticated. The book also features some famous poems (e.g. William Carlos Williams and Robert Frost), which are alluded to in the text and included in full in the back of the book. This is a story in poems of a boy who hates poetry working through his poetry assignments and coming to love some poetry. This sounds way less interesting than the story is for through his poems he also asks a favorite poet to come visit his school and he does! He also tells through several stories about the dog he had and loved and who died. I would put the reading as good for probably 3rd to 5th or even 6th grade. It would be a good option for a reluctant poet since the main character is also a reluctant poet.

Jack n'est pas enthousiasmé par la poésie qui lui semble d'abord très hermétique et destinée aux filles. Mais peu à peu, les mots (et calligrammes) de grands poètes tels William Blake, Robert Lee Frost, S.C. Rigg, Valerie Worth... (dont les oeuvres jalonnent l'ouvrage) trouvent écho en lui et l'encouragent à exprimer le drame qui le hante: son chien jaune s'est fait mortellement heurter par une voiture bleue. Un roman émouvant sous forme de journal intime pour découvrir la beauté de la poésie et la magie des mots. [SDM] Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
