5.0 out of 5 stars
Worthwhile book of poetry, October 27, 2004
This review is from: Behind the Wheel: Driving Poems (Hardcover)
If I hadn't known anything of Janet Wong, I would never have noticed this book based on the title. In fact, people who saw me reading it thought I must be really bored to pick it up. Don't be fooled! It's worth the time and money to check it out. Because the poems are simple and real, I use them in my classroom with 5th and 6th graders.

For every mother of a teenage driver, December 31, 1999
This review is from: Behind the Wheel: Driving Poems (Hardcover)
Janet Wong uses driving as a metaphor for growing up. As the mother of a 16-year-old son with two moving violations and two accidents under his belt already, the collection made me laugh and cry.
