This book is about a boy named Lonnie Collins Motion. When he was 7, his parents died in a fire. Now he's 12 and is living with a new family and goes to school. In school his teacher, Ms. Marcus is teaching Lonnie and his class about poetry and how to put their feelings on paper. Now, with poetry, Lonnie has a new way to show the world about his life, friends, his little sister, and that fire that took his parents. I really enjoyed this book,and how it's all poems from one point of view. Some of the poems are funny, some are sad, some are just about Lonnie thinking. My favorite poem, however, is "All of a Sudden, The Poem",on page 53. It's my favorite because it makes me laugh. But, overall this book was awesome and I hope you enjoy it too! - Emma
