Much poetry is meant to be read outloud and Janet Wong, author of A Suitcase of Seaweed, Buzz, Behind the Wheel and numerous other books has created a beautiful website which takes this into account. Her site not only gives the inside scoop on her books, poems and stories, but also provides realaudio readings of seven of them. Janet founded the UCLA Immigrant Children's Art Project, a program focused on teaching refugee children to express themselves through art, and she is a recipient of the International Reading Association's "Celebrate Literacy Award." http://www.janetwong.com/
