Spine Poems: An Eclectic Collection of Found Verse for Book Lovers by Annette Dauphin Simon is one of the more unusual books I’ve seen in a long time. Bright, colorful, and clever, Spine Poems stacks actual books and uses their spines to express a “found poem.” If you’re looking for something out of the ordinary, this is the book for you! GRADE: A

Patti, I could never have come up with an idea like SPINE POEMS if I had 100 years to do it! Whatever works–story title, haiku, love poem.

You know my reaction to three-named women authors!
