TWO excellent PROFESSIONAL books on the teaching of poetry have come across my desk...both of which I sing high praises to...both of which should be part of EVERY teacher/librarian's bookshelf:
  FRANCO, BETSY. CONVERSATIONS WITH A POET: INVITING POETRY INTO K-12 CLASSROOMS. Richard C Owen Publishers, 2005
  VARDELL, SYLVIA M. POETRY ALOUD HERE!: SHARING POETRY WITH CHILDREN IN THE LIBRARY. American Library Editions, 2006
 
(Don't let the subtitle lead you astray: This book belongs in every classroom, too.)
  Do not miss these valuable texts to bring children and poetry together.
