An Ode To the World
The world is a strange place and is only getting stranger.
This is An Ode to the World, a collection of stories, poems, and personal narratives by the 7th graders at M.S. 839.
Whether dreaming about alliances with Australian mice or writing poems in praise of tuna, these writers bring a thoughtful, creative, and sometimes oddball perspective to all they see.
These are stories of friendship, community, and learning how to be ourselves in this crazy world. We hope you enjoy!
Proceeds from the sale of this book benefit 826NYC, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting students, ages six to eighteen, with their creative and expository writing skills, and to helping teachers inspire their students to write.
