I Don't Like Poetry is a collection of humorous and accessible poems aimed at children who might think poetry is "boring" or overly complicated. The poet, Joshua Seigal, uses relatable, funny, and sometimes silly topics—like school dinners, messy rooms, and sibling annoyance—to demonstrate that poetry can be fun, relevant, and engaging. The book is designed to win over reluctant readers by showing them that poetry is simply about playing with language.
