    About this ebook

    Give you -- and your child -- the beauty of the world.
    Thousands of students in the United States and Mexico have gone on to brilliant careers in the creative arts after attending Border Voices workshops. The secret to that success is distilled in this marvelously funny, and always insightful book.
    The book contains marvelous poems by students ranging in age from 8-18, as well as powerful pieces by professional poets and a writer of TV shows, essays and poetry (that's Jack Webb, the editor). And we mustn't forget Amy Roost, a woman celebrated for her long but ultimately successful search for a lost sister whom she'd never met.
    If you want to have fun while learning the simple secrets of great writing, this is where to look.
