Imperfect: poems about mistakes: an anthology for middle schoolers - Paperback

by Tabatha Yeatts (Editor), Margarita Engle (Contribution by), Buffy Silverman (Contribution by)

Why put together an anthology about mistakes? Because we make mistakes all the time. Some are the size of erasing a hole in your paper, mispronouncing a word, or tripping over your shoelace. Some are the size of telling a friend's secret. Some can be useful, like a science experiment that goes wrong but gives you a new idea. How can we make the most of the good mistakes and do our best to fix the ones that need fixing? Poetry can help us figure it out.
