Mirror Mirror

      Singer, M.  (2010). Mirror, Mirror.  NY:  Dutton. This book is made up of a collection of reversos, poems that when are read up, they take a whole new meaning. These fairy-tale poems are filled with twists and surprises! They are accompanied with beautiful, colorful, and bright illustrations. Singer not only plays creatively with language but also accomplished a very challenging task that was inspired by a poem she wrote that could be read both up and down. This could be a wonderful book to read to 4th grade students who are going to be taking the STAAR test. They can definitely copy Singer and try it themselves. This book can help our fourth graders fall in love with poetry and writing!
