How is this book?

I really enjoy it and find it inspiring. There are blank spaces in the book (and pretty illustrations) to try the poetic exercises and they suggest some poems to read/research in each chapter that match a theme as well as provide a few paragraph reflection on poetic techniques. It's user-friendly and portable--one could dip into it and out of it or read it chronologically. :)
