Poetry

Ten can be challenging, ten can be fun. Ten can be terrifying, lonely, baffling, hilarious. Full of charm and surprise, ten-year-old Ben Hanning's poems are layered with the texture of his world. From the taste of a banana to a scene in Sarajevo, his words hold something different for every reader. "From the title to its closing Author's Note, this collection of poems by a ten-year-old boy--by turns amusing, endearing, and enlightening--is a wonder, an invitation to look through a clear glass into another mind." - Shirin Yim Bridges Ezra Jack Keats Award-winning author of Ruby's Wish
