Our 4th Poetry Slam is a celebration of love and admiration! We are looking for lovers of the spoken word, ages 7 – 14, to recite their original poetic tribute to a person, place, or thing who they admire. It could be an author, musician, parent, pet, personal hero, or even yourself. Each poet will get three minutes to recite or rap a poem or lyric they’ve written. We will select one poet from each age group, judged on poem content and performance, to receive a $25 Children’s Book World gift certificate; all other participating poets will receive $5 gift certificates. Call, come in, or send an email to cbwchildrensbooks@gmail.com to sign up to perform. Start writing your odes, tributes, and appreciations today!
