Book Description

For over twenty years, award-winning short story writer and novelist Peter Markus has made his living teaching creative writing in the Detroit Public Schools. As a teaching artist with Detroit's longest enduring literary non-profit -- InsideOut Literary Arts Project -- Markus has inspired thousands of students to become believers in the power of words, armed with nothing but an ordinary pencil -- the same beat-up, unsharpened pencil Markus has carried with him, story has it, since he was in the third grade. With nods to Pablo Neruda, Mark Strand, T.S. Eliot, and the vital honesty of his own poetic experience, he invites children to explore the dreamscapes of their imaginary worlds, encouraging even the most resistant students to see what magic and wonder awaits them.

I can't remember the last time I was this excited about 'reading' books! I'm blown away by the range of non-fiction audiobooks available – so much to learn! The compatibility with Apple Watch is a huge plus. I can control my audiobooks from my wrist!

I've rediscovered the joy of reading through the convenience of audiobooks. ListenBook has become my go-to app for all things audio – from lectures to speeches, it's got it all. ListenBook's sleek design and intuitive controls make it my go-to app for audiobooks. This app is a game-changer for audiobook lovers! The interface is clean and easy to use. This audiobook was neither good nor bad - simply average. The narrator's delivery was professional but uninspired, and the recording quality was clean though not exceptional. It provided satisfactory entertainment without standing out from similar titles.
