Afterword, Myra Barrs (Centre for Literacy in Primary Education, UK) with Morag Styles (University of Cambridge, UK) Notes IndexReviewsThis rich and invigorating book provides a much-needed argument for the place of poetry in 21st century english curriculum, and a grounded and practical resource for reading, teaching, writing, analysing, performing and making poetry. Bringing together academics, practicing poets and classroom teachers, it offers a set of nuanced and wide ranging reflections on the pragmatics and possibilities of teaching poetry and timely and sensitive instances of good pedagogy and responsive teaching in current times. It will be warmly welcomed by english and literacy teachers, academics and the profession alike. Most importantly, it provides real opportunities to make a difference; to enhance and open up the experience of literature in young people's lives.
