Children's book author J.S. Jenson's latest book, Sharp Bites and Other Pesky Poems, takes on the tweenage years giving them an opportunity to laugh out loud about everything from surviving middle grade math to eating spaghetti with a spoon. There is even a poem about a pickle making a break for the door. With entire chapters dedicated to Squirmy School stuffs, the poetry book offering also comes complete with a few Precarious Pickles, a couple of Harried Haikus and even some Panicked Pancakes, all written in an authentically funny and "sharp" middle school voice that uses rhyme, rhythm and cadence to reach her discerning audience.
