Like Bug Juice on a Burger, Julie Sternberg

Like Bug Juice on a Burger is a Poetic Novel written by Julie Sternberg.  The book is about a little girl named Eleanor who goes to summer camp but does not enjoy her time there until the end.  The story is written like a poem.  There also pictures that go along with the writing that look like they are drew by Eleanor.  It is an easy read that exposes readers to a different type of writing.

I liked this book a lot, it reminded me of my childhood of when I went to summer camp.  I would read this book to my class right before summer to get students excited about summer and going to summer camp.  I would have students write a poem about activities they do in the summer including going to summer camp.  This would teach students how to write poetry.  I really like this book and think it can teach students a new way of writing so I will have it in my classroom library.
