About this ebook
The original poetry--dulcet and dissonant, supercilious and super-silly--of the eighth graders in Mr. Stewart's English classes.
Author
Fuqua St. John
I am currently the Lead Teacher at a middle school in Arlington, Virginia. I coach track, run an anonymous literary magazine ("A No Name Moose"), shepherd the school journalists, direct the school plays, and drum for the teacher rock band. At home in Arlington, my family is, of course, darling, and we have a vicious holly tree and a backyard garden where unplanted vegetables magically grow.
