Subject: [BCALA] Reviewer requested for children's book

Hi,

I have a writer that wants to send a review copy of a children's book to a reviewer to be reviewed in the Caucus publication. Is anyone willing to do a review for this book? There'd be no rush with this; just finish and submit the review to me by Summer 2019 (a children's book likely won't take long to get through). Details about the book are below.

If you're interested, please email me off list.

Hello to you,

I am Chris James, national award winning poet, poetry teacher, TEDx speaker, playwright and author of the new children's book, JOE GOT FLOW. I am interested in learning more about how BCALA can assist in the awareness of this new book title.

The book is JOE GOT FLOW: A Story of Hip & Poetry. The book about is about a 5th grader named Joseph who aspires to rap but soon learns from Mr. Chris, a visiting poet, that he must first learn the art of writing poems. Throughout the week, Mr. Chris teaches all the figurative language skills; simile, metaphor, adages, alliteration. idiom, personification, etc. By the end of the week Joseph falls in love with poetry. This book can be used to cover these core standards for grades 3-5 and even some middle and high school standards.

Thanks so much in advance.
