Sophia will be entering into the 6th grade this year (2015) and has always been interested in words, phrases, analogies and idioms. One of her more quirky attributes is the ability to take an idiom and use it in an entirely new way that somehow actually fits the current situation. Sophia sees things differently than most people and this compliments her ability to churn out poetry that is sometimes good, sometimes bad, sometimes funny, and sometimes sad. When Sophia was a small child we read to her almost every night, mostly the same old children's books we have all come to love/hate, but occasionally we would read Shel Silverstein and of course Dr. Seuss, these she loved. I will never forget the time when Sophia was able to recite all of Shel Silverstein's "Hungry Mungry" after only hearing it twice. She has a gift, and while this current collection represents Sophia's efforts in its infancy, I do hope you will enjoy it. By the way if you are reading these poems out loud it helps if you imagine Seuss's "The Cat in the Hat" with a guitar singing Silverstein's "The Giving Tree." -Good Luck- John S. Fitch, Sophia's Dad
