- Tom Cool's E-Zine
- http://www.xmission.com/~gastown/cool/
- What I like about the site is that it has the coolest graphics I have ever
seen. The site is about science fiction stories. There was nothing I did
not like about this site. I think this site would be a good site for kids
my age because of the graphics.

- Poems for and about the Young
- http://www.ece.ucdavis.edu/~darsie/kid_poems.html
- We think that these poems are too long for most kids. The people that made this thing didn't know what most kids would like! Most kids would like a shorter type of poem. Kids like to read through a thing quick.

- I like this site because it has lots of poems that are good. I don't like this site because the site gets annoying after you read a couple poems. I think other kids my age would think its really boring and so do I.

- Limericks
- http://www.yahoo.com/arts/literature/poetry/humor/limericks.com
- This was a good site even though there was too much information. The poems were
really long and they weren't writen very well. But they were still funny.

- There once was a man from Nantucket...
- http://www.Nantucket.net/YI/limerick/home.html
- We liked this poem because it was
very funny. The part that we didn't like was at the end when the poem said
Nantucket because it took a while for us to figure out what it meant. Yes we think it's good for kids our age. They might not understand the end. Never keep your money in a bucket unless
it's in a bank because someone will take it for sure

- The Robert Frost Web Page
- http://pronews.pro-net.co.uk/home/catalyst/RF/rfcover.html
- Robert Frost is my favorite poet. He made my all-time favorite poem. It
was called Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening. I liked everthing in this site.

- Wings Magazine
- http://www.readersndex.com/columns/wings/
- We like it because it tells us how much it cost to publish a poem in
the magazine. We didn't like it because it didn't have a lot of
pictures. We think its for our age . Nothing is bad for kid's our age.
We found information on how you publish poems in a magazine.

- Poem Title: December
- I like the way it sounds. I don't like the picture. The other kids will
like the mirror freezing over.

- Concertina Books On- Line-raft, Page 8
- http://www.iatech.com/books/raft8.htm
- We liked because it was very short.
We thought the picture was too plain.
We think it is good for other kids are age because its easy to read.
Nothing about the poem is bad for kids our age.
There wasn't a lot of info.

- Poem Title: I Live on a Raft
- I think it was a very imagnitive poem but it was kind of boring because
it didn't rhyme, the background picture was interesting, and I think
this poem is good for other kids my age.
Ben P. Age 10; Seeds University Elementary School, Westwood, CA
- I like the part about the raft because it was not in the
sea it was in the sky. I also liked the part when the airplains turned into dolphins, and
played tag.
