Poetry that's more than just fun to read...,
In "School Days, Holidays and all Days that Lie in Between," Poet, Nicole S. Brown, weaves a poetic interpretation of education, which is valuable not only to fans of poetry, but to both teachers and students alike.

At first read, it's simply enjoyable. The imagery and prose evokes the reader into thought, remembrance and perhaps for the adult reader, even a bit of nostalgia. But as you delve deeper you realize that this poetry also takes another direction: a valuable teaching tool.

The poetry collection is written in various lengths and rhythms, which can connect the reader to real life moments, in or out of a classroom setting. For teachers, these poems can be used to assist in educating students. Take for instance the section of poetry written expressly about math and science. It offers simple ways to remember definitions on various subject headings, like plants and animals, to liquids, gasses and solids ~poetry to help learn chemistry and biology~ a wonderful blend of literature and science.

And for students, it not only assists in their classroom education, but also with lessons regarding daily life.

Nicole's poetry tackles many subjects, from building personal character, holidays and heartfelt glances into daily life, to simply explaining topics like math and science. Her authoritative prose is clearly derived from her personal life experience and education in Monroe, Louisiana.

"School Days, Holidays and all Days that Lie in Between" is definitely a collection you will want to pass down to future generations.
