Poem for a Pickle written by Eve Merriam and illustrations by Sheila Hamanaka is a great source for poetry. This book is comprised of 239 different styles of poems. This is a great source for teaching children about writing poetry. I would have my students do shared reading so that I could guide them and model for them first how to read poetry and then they could read and share their favorite poems with one another.
