Travellers... You
probably take photographs on your journeys. You possibly also write postcards
or emails telling friends and family what you have done and what you have
seen. Have you thought about combining some of your photographs with a
different kind of writing - poetry? Here
are some books which do just that. If you've been to Africa, India, Peru,
Portugal, Thailand or Vietnam, you may enjoy being reminded of your own
travels by reading about H S Toshack’s and viewing some of the scenes he’s
caught (in an amateurish, pre-digital sort of way) on camera. If you're
planning a trip to one of those places, this is an opportunity to explore it
before you go. If
when you've looked at some of the writing you think you might like to produce
something similar...then the Travel Poetry Tutorial could interest you. We’d
also like to hear from you if you have any writing and photographs you think
could be published at PoemsandPlaces.com. If
you decide no to any or all of that, enjoy your travelling anyway…. |

...and
if when you travel you’ll be doing so in the company of children in the 7-12
age group, and you’d like them to have a book or two with them for the
journey (particularly if it’s a journey to Africa), you may be interested in
the Paka Mdogo (Little Cat) series...also about journeys. The book
covers are below, and they're linked to the LitWorks.com website, where
you’ll find information about the books themselves (and the free learning
resources that go with them, in case you want your young travellers to take
some homework along as well). |
