Like a poetic Johnny Appleseed, Brod Bagert travels America, visiting schools and conferences with the message that poetry comes alive for children when they perform it. His own poems are often funny, sometimes sad, and always highly performable. Brod has published 15 books of poetry for children and adults. His book Giant Children (Dial, 2004) was nominated for the 2005 K-3 Children's Choice Award.
