Abstract | This dynamic poet never has to look any further than her own backyard for inspiration. April is a wondrous month for poetry. Alice Schertle was born in April and Young People's Poetry Week is celebrated from the 11th through the 17th this year. Kristine O'Connell George was born on May 6, 1954, in Denver, CO. She is a great admirer of teachers; her grandmother taught in a one-room schoolhouse and her mother was a third grade teacher and high school guidance counselor. It was also a teacher friend who introduced her to the world of children's literature. In 1989, Kristine took a course in children's poetry at the University of California in Los Angeles. The class was taught by the late, renowned poet, Myra Cohn Livingston. For the next eight years, Livingston became Kristine?s mentor, and encouraged her to find her own poetic voice. (ERIC). |
