Poetry For Kids 12 and Under at The Rabbit Hole Bookstore May 23, 2010

he Rabbit Hole presents a free Sunday poetry series once a month for kids age 12 and under. Kids can bring a favorite poem to read out loud, or we can give your child a poem to read. Moms, Dads and family members are welcome to read also. And if you are a child who is writing poetry, come share your work with a receptive audience.

Area writer/artist Sally Cragin will host the poetry readings. Ms. Cragin has taught at Harvard Extension School and Webster University in St. Louis and is a resident artist at Rollstone Studios. Sally is a board member of New England Poetry Club, the nation's oldest poetry organization. Parents/adults need to accompany their child.

Immediately following, The Rabbit Hole will have Children's Author Gardner Wood, who will be reading his new book "The Newspaper King" from 2-3 PM.

The Rabbit Hole is located at 805 Main Street, downtown Fitchburg.
