From Shakespeare to slam poetry, get in touch with the pulse and power of words. Read poetry that’s wacky, serious, and fun, and express yourself by writing your own poems. One book for this theme will be VHC’s Vermont Reads 2013 Poetry 180: A Turning Back to Poetry, an anthology of contemporary poems selected by Billy Collins, so that campers will be part of this statewide read. |
