Forgetting How to Spell Remember
by Woodlawn Writers Corps Youth Authors
These poems reflect on some of the heaviest topics as well as some of the lightest. Be moved by poems on depression, heaven, and crime. Feel the joy in reflections on Oreos, Hot Pockets, and music.
— Simon Traub-Epstein, International Library of Young Authors
