Recenzje

"Researcher Janine Certo investigates the many instructional and social influences that shape the poetry writing and performance of elementary school students. Bringing to bear the newest methodologies, Certo analyzes and offers new ideas for how to most productively teach poetry to younger students in order to create interested and capable lifelong writers and readers of poetry. Certo’s voice is one all who are interested in giving children voice need to hear." - Michael Theune, Illinois Wesleyan University, USA
