A Shakespearean sonnet as a picture book?Children love rhyme and rhythm...so why not rhyme in a sonnet?This story about acceptance is short and sweet (140 syllables to be exact). Using the sonnet structure, a young ghost dresses up as a ghost in order to fit in with the other trick-or-treating children in the three quatrains, but all ends on a positive note in the rhyming couplet. Very young children will love the colourful illustrations and the gentle rhythm of iambic pentameter, while older children can begin to learn about this 1000-year-old poetic form. In the back of the book there is information on the history and structure of the sonnet as well as some pages where children can practice their own rhyming patterns and iambic pentameter, and even try penning their own sonnets.
