Judge Regarding Books Honeybee: Poems Short Prose

This is a collection of poems that Naomi Shihab Nye has written. I the beginning she tells a story about how when she was in college she took this class where they studied all types of animals. She picked bees, so for a whole semester she studied bees and at the end she gad to write a essay on what she had learn about them. Throughout the book she tells many stories and poems, at first you might not realize it but they all tie back to the story in the beginning. I love how creative she was, she

AWARDS AND HONORS:2008 Arab-American Book Award, School Library Journal Best Book, Cooperative Children's Book Center ChoiceOVERALL RESPONSE"Honeybee" made me want to start writing poetry again. I haven't written a poem since last October when I taught poetry as part of a unit about discovering "Who am I?" in my 6th grade language arts class. The introduction was key in bringing the entire book of poems together. Though this is a collection of poems, some previously published elsewhere, by the

A really nice collection of poems and prose poems. I especially liked the prose poems, which are like tiny short stories, really well done, some funny, some touching, some both. There's a bee motif running through it, unsurprisingly. My favorites were "Museum," which can't be described without ruining it and "Gate A-4" about how an unexpected community forms among people waiting for a delayed flight. It ends "This can still happen anywhere. All is not lost," which nearly made me cry. There are a

Definitely some 4 & 5 star work in here but overall Im more like 3.5 I dont understand this book being on the shelf in my elementary school library (here before I arrived). Many themes that would not resonate with kids! Many themes about being older & looking back, Time, war... I loved the ending piece Gate A-4

Poems and short prose pieces, many about honeybees, but also personal memoirs, prayers, pointed commentary on the American invasion of Iraq, literature, neighbors, children, and life around San Antonio, Texas. There are tales of sorrow and joy. Oddly, the library where I borrowed this book had this title classified as childrens poetry, but it is clearly written for an adult audience.

This poem book is filled with 80 more poems students and teachers can work with. I love how the poems talk about where we would be without just one little honeybee. It is important for students to feel important to children. They need to feel they make an impact into society and that poem book does just that. And talk about light, love war and more

I didn't think it would be political, hence the not-5 rating. But overall it has great insights, as always expected from Nye.
