"When You've Made It Your Own" is written in a light, conversational tone in the hope of demystifying poetry for the teacher so that it could be easily and pleasurably incorporated in the language arts curriculum. Denman, a professional storyteller and language arts consultant, addresses the elementary and middle school teacher, explaining the nature and purpose of poetry, reading and appreciating poetry, and writing poems. There is an extensive presentation of ready-made poetry activities, a list of children's poets and books of poetry, and a listing of poems appropriate to different types of classroom discussion.
