The final book featured in my National Poetry Month 2015 celebration is my own verse novel: Gone Fishing: A Novel in Verse. Last month I hit a new career milestone when it was released in paperback and to celebrate I'm giving away one copy of the new paperback.
Here is the flap copy from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt:
Sam loves fishing with his dad. So when his pesky little sister, Lucy, horns in on their fishing trip, he’s none too pleased. "Where's my stringer/ Something's wrong!/This princess doll does not belong!" With winsome poems—from acrostic to ballad—and a Poet's Tackle Box at the end, this is the perfect primer to hook aspiring poets of all ages.
"Just the thing for readers with a burgeoning interest in poetry - or angling." - Publisher's Weekly
