The Magic Poetry Bus Driver’s Guide will be coming out in about a month! This is the handbook for children who want to take a ride on the Magic Poetry Bus (the imagination) and learn poems by heart, among other fun ways to approach poetry.
The Bus is partnered with GET LIT, the teen literacy project of the inner city. to learn more about the Bus, go to magicpoetrybus.org, or click here. You may also visit my website at CarolMuskeDukes.com
Our goal is to raise funds to distribute The Magic Poetry Bus Driver’s Guide to all California public schools.
