This Book Won't Bug You

ReviewLee Bennett Hopkins grew up in a single-parent household, in Newark, New Jersey, with a mother, a younger brother and a sister. Lee went to Newark State Teachers College now called Kean College. Hopkins was a 6th grade teacher for many years. He writes pictures books, novels and poetry. What I like is that his poems are creative and fun to read. What I dislike about the book is that Hopkins's poems could be longer than they are now. Since my likes are more than my dislikes, I say that you should read this book.
