Get Lit Rising brings to life the true story of nineteen teen poets (the Get Lit Players) who are inspiring thousands of teens across the country through their award-winning performances of classic and spoken word poems. This book takes readers inside the private lives of these teen poets as they try to transform the lives of inner city teens in some of the toughest life circumstances. The Get Lit Players include teens who are homeless, autistic, have parents in jail, battle with weight and body issues, depression, and more. But they use the power of poetry to pursue lives of promise and to reach out to friends, families, and communities. This uplifting book also offers the classic poems that have most inspired the Get Lit Players, along with their own personal response poems, and each chapter offers questions, writing prompts, and how-tos for readers to set their own inner poet free. Ending with a section for parents and educators featuring the curriculum that's already in schools throughout California, this slam-dunk shows how to get teens excited about poetry and how to create poetry groups and slams in their own communities"-- $c Provided by publisher. 541 $d 20161024. 650 7 $a Children's poetry, American. 650 0 $a Poetry $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Poetry $x Authorship $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a American poetry $y 21st century. 650 0 $a American poetry $y 21st century $x History and criticism $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Poets, American $y 21st century $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 700 $a Lane, Diane Luby,. 700 $a Get Lit Players. 941 $a 8 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214014834.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722053942.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20190423015155.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20190321013314.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006102912.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20180615010147.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20170512010359.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20161101015341.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=150D08189FF911E69DB5D378DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
