Imaginative Poetry is the second book in the series Text Types and introduces students to the text type; poetry. It exposes students to a number of delightful and beautifully illustrated poems written by the author and by popular children’s poets, so that they are able to recognise that poems do not all look alike. Cleverly designed activities, which are outcome linked, motivate students to identify and respond to a number of poetic forms and inspire them to create their own poems using a range of poetic techniques. The solutions for the activities are provided at the back of the book.

This series is highly recommended for any teacher teaching English in upper or lower secondary school.
